Last week, we learned more about The 555 Timer, the 9th lesson of the first PyroEDU course: An Introduction To Modern Electronics. This week we’re going back to more basic things, with documentation.

Beyond the electronics and fun experiments that we have performed in the previous lessons, we need to study how electrical schematics are drawn so that we can document our designs. This lesson gives an overview of how to draw schematics and takes a few looks at what datasheets are, how to use them and why we need them.
