Really? I guess I'm more of a beginner than you. He totally lost me . If he would have stopped at 6:00 and thoroughly explained and applied what he just did, I would have had a fighting chance. Instead, he moved on.

Nice one Paul. I'd like to see more on drawing more complex schematics too. Glad to have you back again and feeling better!

Learning schematics is one of the most difficult things to me for some reason, so if you keep going with this lessons - I'll be very thankful.

Very nice. I wouldn't mind seeing more schematics stuff. More breadboard projects in general would be cool, too. Build-along projects and even more complicated stuff could be fun.

Great video Paul. I would love a video on reading more complex schematics. Every little bit of knowledge you pass on to us helps. I hope your recovery is going well. Please don’t push yourself to hard while recovering, we’ll still be here if you need a little break.

Heyyy! Nice to have you back! :) I loved this fundamentals revision video! That would be great to see more indeed👍 Thanks a million!

Yeah Paul! Go Ahead! You explains very well, it`s nice to understand the "why"s, not just "how". Thanks for sharing.

Can you explain it to me? He moves ahead too fast without application.

Very good indeed. I would love to see more of this on here please. Great channel and great videos too, please keep up the good work. Have Fun, Joe

Please continue with these series. It helps alot. Thank you for sharing and taking time to make these vidoes.

Thanks for that Paul. A very well presented tutorial on assembling a basic circuit based on the rules of how it all works.. Never hurts to be reminded of the basics. Hope you are recovering well.

Fantastic job, dude! Thanks a lot! 😊 I hope you're feeling better already!

Glad too see you back and well Paul. Please show us more.⚓

Nice to see ya back, I too get issues with kidney stones and I can relate to your discomfort. Hope all is well and I truly appreciate your videos and sharing your knowledge of a hobby I am a noob to, but I really enjoy the challenge of it. Thanks and God Bless you and yours😇😇😇😇😇.

Thanks for this video. I've watched just about every schematic to breadboard video on here and this one blows them all away. It would be great if you made more and upped the complexity.

thank you for your video! It really helped!

Glad to see you are back. I found that interesting and informative - more would be good. BTW when I Googled 4.7 microFarad capacitor I was offered electrolytic or tantalum. Some guidance on choosing capacitors would be a useful future tutorial, I think.

Your teaching style and videos are excellent.

Great video and definitely keep the series going! Your use of the schematic, the pin layout of the chip, and the breadboard were excellent. If I could make one small suggestion: include all three elements in the video shot at the same time. This way learners (especially visual learners like me!) can make the connection of exactly what you are doing, how to do it, and why it works.

Best I’ve found. I know nothing, and you made it clear enough for me to understand. 😊🎃

Hi Paul keep it simple for the new boys like me great video hope your surgery went well thanks

Well presented, and interesting. Please continue!

19:02...LOL. Big brother is listening. Great series, please keep it going. Hope you are feeling better.

Could you please show us your electronic set up? Your tools, the different types of breadboards power supplies that you've got, how do you keep your parts organized and what do you do with all those leads that you cut off?

Hello, can i use a SN74HC00N instead of the cd4011 ? and yes I'd also like to see more on drawing more complex schematics, and rules to follow. Thanks all!

I'm 46 years old....and starting to learn electronics. Electronics always fascinated me. My dad was an electrician, always an old Radio Shack Multimeter in the house. Thank you for showing your knowledge of the trade. I would love to learn even 1/64th of what you know. Your channel is awesome! What got me going, drop kicking my butt into learning electronics, was guitar pedal building. I never knew you could do that! LOL! OMG....8 out 10 my things are failures...but I learn my mistakes and what not to do. Then i research why it didn't work. So my failures turn into success. I subscribed to your awesome channel! Great job on the excellent job you do man! You are awesome as hades!

Please keep on going, I would like to learn more. Thanks

This is awesome! Thank you.

Another informative video thanks Paul. Reading through the comments I agree and would be saying the same too. Im newish and all self taught via books and on here. For me the challenge is getting the schematic to the breadboard, test it then get it onto strip board as making my own PCB's are the next step but later. So Yes please more videos on this subject. Question: My schematic for a LM386 audio amp shows pins 2 and 4 connected with a capacitor but both are shown with seprate grounds continuing afterwards. If the cap bridges both pins will one ground from pin 2 or 4 be enough or do both pins need their own ground? Hope Ive explained that well enough. Thanks

Great explanation. Keep up the good work 👍

I love these videos you do👍 I already know this stuff but I always watch coz it's good to always go back over what you have learned plus it lets you know how far you have come when you see a schematic and instancely know what it's doing. Makes you feel your making progress..

thank for this, really good video - would have been good to have more shots of the wires going into the bread board because it takes my brain too long to catch up afterwards lol. would be interested in seeing some more complicated circuits translated from schematic to breadboard - sometimes i find breadboards are harder to get my head around than actual circuits themselves.

Hahaha I know what you mean. I watched his newer video about schematic to breadboard before this, now I feel like I've not got a clue what I'm doing anymore! I'm questioning everything I thought I knew. Tempted just to solder up my circuit on a double sided pcb rather than give myself any more of a headache trying to wrap my head around this. Hopefully I'll feel more confident after this video

Hi, I just found your channel while looking for multimeter reviews. I'd like to see more of this (and multimeter reviews too). I've learned enough to read the simple stuff you just showed, more by accident than anything else, but the more advanced stuff is like Sanskrit to me. Glad your surgery went well, I had my first kidney stone last year and all the horror stories everyone told me didn't even begin to describe it.

Fellow kidney stone sufferer, I feel your pain. I'm a multimeter addict, you have no worries of seeing plenty of meter reviews here.

how is that we now have current flowing from positive pole of the battery and in all other beginners guide I saw that current is coming from negative pole, any hints please?

Paul glad to see you are back in the saddle, I am proud papa of 7-kidney stones so far. I appreciate your videos and the effort you make to share your knowledge, keep up the good work. The only issue I observed was the breadboard was out of sight as you made the connections. Thanks again God Bless and I pray for your speedy, full recovery.

I remember the day the penny dropped and this guff all came into focus. I'd say It's THE KEY to everything (it was for me) when you stop seeing 20,000 components and miles of wire and learn to find the bit your're interested in and ignore the rest the panic goes away. I'd be happy to see you spreading the word. Demystifying the basics sounds good to me. You're obviously round and about even if you're maybe not up to speed ... Possibly the biggest hurdle after appetite is having a dump in your own head in your own time ... for me that's the milestone that I aim for. stay safe.

Hi, is it possible to make a similar circuit that makes a led blink like a heart beat but with a coin cell (3v) battery !!! I am trying to build a wearable circuit means i need small power sourcr

Thanks Paul, would really enjoy more complicated circuit training, especially with transistors turning on and off. Thanks awesomesauce of a video.

Nicely done! 👏🏻👍

Any video on explaining the circuit diagram of the transmitter and receiver module on bread broad

As alway a joy to see your videos! :-) I can read most schematics, component by component but that is fine if I want to assemble the circuit. What I would really like you to make, is a "read function" a when you see these standard combination, it's a xxx. It could be like, that is a voltage divider, that is a amplifier with negative feedback and so on, so that the schematic suddenly becomes a drawing of modules.

Really good way to put theory into practice. It was a little bit hard to follow along when the breadboard was out of the frame when you were putting things in though.

I blew my chance to learn electronics when I was at school back in 1959. It was for a goverment training course in radio and t.v. I had passed the preliminary maths and algebra exam. In an interview by three officials I was asked various questions to justify the £2000.00 it would cost the goverment. I was asked, what is a diode? I replied I did not have a clue, that is why I wish to learn. A letter arrived later to say I had failed the interview. I now know what a diode is and learning for 2 years at age 76. Many thanks for your valued help. Would love to meet you if you ever came to Cornwall.

Hey this was great! I'm an engineering technology student concentrating in programming and automation. I'm wanting to start a hobby in electronics and hopefully start by snagging an arduino kit soon. Anyways, love your videos!

Glad to see that you're ok from the surgery. The video is good for inspiring the newer ones. Put more complex schematics progressivly . I miss the ariston breadboards which you could unscrew and clean the contacts or remove them to create clearance for more powerfull circuits

Welcome back, not that you were gone that long...

It promised so much but in the last quarter of the video the camera was not directed to the breadboard so I was unable to follow you from the schematic to the breadboard. Sorry. However, I would be interested in learning more about transferring from the schematics to the breadboard and hope others agree. Just a shame that I couldn't see what you were doing 1st time round.

Good video, would have been nice to have the board in view

D1 5mm Red LED, uncle Paul. You mislabeled🤣. But I wanted to know, do you teach it that way in your EE classes, electrons flowing out the positive terminal of your power source coming back to the negative terminal? I know the Engineering world likes to go traditional and teach it that way.

Lot's of back ground noise... a hum of some sort..... appreciate your teaching and yes I am interested in more.... I found a million symbols on a website and download a bunch of pdf files for my future reference...

I wish I new how a breadboard works. Maybe I could understand better. Thanks for your time

Great! Thanks for showing us the difference between the series and parallel circuit as well as how a voltage divider circuit operates. I know for you it's pretty easy. For a newbie as myself I get overwhelmed with it all... I liked the idea of ticking off the wired up parts of the breadboard.. elegant. I will definitely be using this approach while constructing my circuits..:-) I like the way you explained the voltage divider formula as well. Would you be kind enough to maintain these great instructional videos. I personally would like to see as well some ever complex circuit diagram to breadboard examples... :-)

I am glad to see that you are using the American symbols, rather than the much less easy to read European symbols. In the case of logic, the European symbols are really hard to read at a glance, because everything is represented as a box. Engineers are usually very competent at reading a circuit diagrams, but most can be taken out of their comfort zone when presented with some specialist areas such as microwave power circuits, where there can be some very esoteric devices.

Universities in the UK use American symbols for logic gates.

Awesome...

Why does changing the input on pin 1 have any effect if pin 2 is permanently tied low? Shouldn't the ouput at pin 3 always be high with at least one input being low?

@K9-33

Good observation .. you are correct. The schematic is drawn incorrectly. The bottom of the two resistors and capacitor are tied together but NOT to ground. Ground is only connected to pin 7 of the 4011. Now pin2 can change causing oscillations.

@mrtom64

Ah....yes....that makes more sense....but, the circuit on the breadboard is demonstrated to work as expected...and you can clearly see that pins 1,2,3,4(via cap) and 7 are all connected to ground....and yet the LED still flashes...how can this happen?

Please explain, why electrical schematics are setup different than wiring diagrams. How is this beneficial?

A schematic shows the electrical flow, the electron flow so to speak through the circuit The way the current moves. A wiring diagram simply shows where things are connected to each other.

really informative... more complex schematics would be great... many thanks.

Very nice, would like to see more videos on this subject. A couple of comments.... For us lame mathematicians I would have liked to see you do the actual math on your formula to make sure I was understanding all of the equations. The other comment is while you were building the circuit you were out of frame for a good portion of it, and wanted to see the construction. Thank you for the video, I do follow your channel and watch about every video you put out and have gleaned a lot of valuable information. Thank you, I hope the surgery went well and speedy recovery. Thank you for all you do, and F- the haters!

13:30 ha! ha! Maybe she was talking about how the breadboard is off camera and we can't see what's going on.

We are waiting video series about basics of circuits

Hello! I'm a beginner beginner and it looks like i'm the only one having trouble here, lol, but i'll ask anyway. I'm having trouble making the connection between the circuit being drawn at the beginning and the one drawn at 6:11 (the one using rails). Especially when at 7:27 he says it creates a loop. It's hard for me to visualize a loop considering that there is not a literal loop drawn on the paper, so I think I just fundamentally don't understand something about how the ground or battery is drawn or maybe the relationship between the two. It makes sense that the battery in the first diagram has two "leads" connecting it, one on the positive side and one on the negative side. However it doesn't make sense for me to see the battery in the rail diagram only have one "lead" connecting it to the circuit. Again at 9:25 when he's describing the flow from the battery through the resistors and to the ground, to me it appears to be a one-way street, so it was confusing to see him draw the red box and say "so this by itself is a complete circuit," lol. Sorry to post on an old thread, thanks for your patience if you're reading this!

@14:25, Pin 2 and beyond, you removed the breadboard beyond the camera's viewing angle and nothing was visible. Thanks for your effort though.

Dude yes! On my quest to learn electronics on my own thru KZread, old used electronics text books and tearing apart guitar pedals you just gave me a bunch of puzzle pieces and the big picture is becoming much clearer!!! Thank you for making and posting this.

You oughta design a bandpass filter to filter out all the noise in this video from machines cause I would have loved to watch it if I could have tolerated the bad audio quality. Cut out under 300 hz and above like 2k in your mic

I'm not sure what went wrong! :)

HI I am new subscriber . My project i would like to make work . Is a stock market sign from LED. the ones you see on Business channel that with the stock prices that move across the screen and gives live data of stock prices. one i could put my own stock company ticker in. Thanks in advanced.

This reminds me of when I tried learning Russian!! Only easier!

Why do u. Need r2 to ground why

I'm not dumb as I thought! Ha-ha, I'll kinda had a clue what's going on!

excellent video as always ! Probably the best source on youtube to learn electronics , many tend to over complicate things.. That being said, i would not mind a part 2 for more complex circuits :)

this is a nice video but, u should have always kept the board in the view of the camera so the viewers can see everything.... but, nice video

Why the need to swear ? You bastard !🤣

It's a shame that half of the translation from the schematic to the breadboard takes place off-camera

Your video is just ok. You should always keep your work in the video. Your viewers can't see what you're connecting, and where. This is extremely frustrating, and detracts from learning.

More More More....

Would have been a lot clearer if we could have seen you populating the breadboard

I'm glad I found your channel you make thing simple. Not like greatscot who goes 500 mph, or all thoes other dumb ass ones who play techno music and explain nothing lol

Just so you see a beginner viewpoint, the breadboard assembly system hides what's going on. I have no idea of how the schematic translated to a reality. The breadboard just creates another level of mental fog for beginners.

Fir sire mer lernin prease

I did end up watching the whole thing... but your hand was covering the pcb board during the whole thing and you were building it off screen. you couldnt see anything you were doing til the very end. Definitely could have improved this video

common need to keep your camera in proper position

Way too big a leap at 7:45. Remember the video title is "Getting Started ...". Remember your audience is a bunch of people who literally just learned the symbol for a nine volt battery. You gotta slow down and explain it like we're five years old.

At 7:37 you moved on without explaining how the two totally different drawings are actually the same. Totally lost me as a beginner just getting started.

D2 is D1 is a mistake

11:04 Again, a premature jump ahead. You're covering way too much material without some practical application to attach things to mentally. I'm watching in hopes of review for explanation and it's just getting more complex.
