Ever wonder how to actually build the circuits you learn about in class? Want to know why current doesn't always follow the path of least resistance? Learn the processes to take your theoretical design from paper to PCB (printed circuit board). This series of lectures will cover many topics not traditionally taught in the classroom related to the physical implementation of circuits starting with design fundamentals and concluding with a tutorial on performing your own printed PCB layout. Real world implementation concerns such as component selection, power supply decoupling, cabling, mixed signal grounding, proper trace layout, PCB construction, layout software usage, and final file creation will be addressed. Class is ideal for those wanting to build small, reliable circuits for class, research, or fun!
