Devilschild Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Hey I'm in High School and new to electronics. I study Physics and can solder quite well. Im just wondering what is the best way to learn more about electronics without doing a course. I want to be able to read and construct electronic boards for home use, but dont have a clue what I am doing.Questions that have been bothering me:When I look at a schematic for something i want to build, i know what parts i need, but how do i know where to put them, and how do you join them on a PCB board?Also, where is the best place to buy PCB parts, i live in Australia and my local Tandy and Dick Smith Electronics do not supply most of the specific parts i need?Thanks for the help guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
