Please make video on diy microcontroller based lab bench power supply with all safety features.
Compact sstc/drsstc diy or buy?
Can you make a video about DIY fix for electronics show us how to troubleshoot faulty electronics
Oh optocoupler and l293d thumbs for that.
Also i'll change the nodeMcu for the esp32, it haves more features for almost the same price.
Most if not all of the links have an estimated 30-50 day delivery for me (probably because I'm I'm aus) should I still do and buy most of it, (I am wanting to but I'm not sure if the wait is worth it)
The *First Law of Electronic Components:* _"The component you need is always the one you don't have."_
The *Second Law of Electronic Components:* _"You never have all the components you need to complete a project."_
The *Third Law of Electronic Components:* _"If you have all the components for a project, at least one will fail or become damaged."_
All three are corollaries of Murphy's Law.
So true 😂
True
This comment is on point.
This one should be on the door of every amateur electronics tinkerer 🤣🤣
I have all the components I need for the project, and none of them broke... Yet
I am still waiting for that moment
Well, to me it's always useful to ha e heatsinks, I keep every one I find, Always useful
me too. : )
Especially when stepping down the voltage significantly since the extra voltage just turns in to heat.
@@koton_bads In such a situation, a buck converter is usually a better choice
It means that you are not so efficient in handling electronic projects. 》save energy《
i keep a fire extingusher instead of heatsink.. they are more useful as i have found..
Also, an important component is Relay. I also highly recommend having some more powerful NPN and PNP transistors just for amplifiers, since they are quite popular too. For NPN I would go with BD139 and BD911 and for PNP BD140 and BD912. I would also recommend 4R and 6R power resistors as a load.
Thanks for your amazing content :)
Also don't forget the 2sc5200 and complementary 2sa1943 for more beefy amps, and 2n3055 with MJ2955 to build extra reliable power supplies and vintage power amps ( those are REALLY tough ones ), and the most important thing of all with this kind of semiconductors, NEVER buy BJTs from unknown supplier, all of these transistors are very likely to be counterfeits, most of electronics projects with these fail due to crappy fakes.
All fakes that i found very common:
BD139
BD140
BC550 ( noisy )
BC560 ( noisy )
BD911
BD912
2N3055 ( often die size 1.5mm² instead of proper 5mm² or no die inside )
MJ2955
2SC5200
2SA1943
2N2222 ( no die inside or low max freq )
BC557 ( no die inside package )
2N3553 ( not working in RF )
common IRFs but on higher voltage/current.
Power LEDs
NE5532
NE5534
AD827 ( and similar )
MUSES opamps
And many more out there
Always make sure you got quality parts that have proper SOA.
first 1 month when I played with electronic I was happy with 5 type of resistor and capacitors and 555 timer.. Now I have components in thousand peaces, which worth thousands of euro and still I find component which is missing in my collection:D Do not forget linear low power voltage regulators :) Great Job, Great Scott!
7:38 For full-bridge...
Me: ElectroBOOM INTENSIFIED...
GS: ...with N-channel MOSFET
Me: Ah, nevermind.
Anyway, good video. Seems like my Aliexpress account will be full of orders once again.
You can wait a long time for those I have just ordered 12 orders and none of them have arrived yet and they should have arrived last week. Yay coronavirus
@@bartvandeloo1255 JLC is still shipping really well at least to the bay area US. I got my boards in under a week with DHL so there's that ig.
RECTIFIER!!
Full bridge rectifier... 🤣
1:53 No of course not.
I have it all in a big plastic bag.
Super easy to not find anything
I chuck all my electronic components inside my drawer and boi is it confusing and infuriating when you want to find a specific transistor or any other component.
I know.
I really do have mine in a plastic bag, I know what you mean...
@@Rainbow_Sword i have a wardrobe in the room full to the brim. only for the bed holding it closed it would burst open.. : ) (AND IM NOT EVEN JOKING)
PLASTIC! I use an anti static, now i feel fancy.
I have a storage box with useless 'useful ' bits in there... For safekeeping
Hi Scott, I dropped out of my bachelor's degree because I wanted to become an electronics engineer (still working on it), I always wanted to! but due to lack of money I couldn't do so. But recently, I saved some money and I also started to work as a freelance video editor on the side to pursue this hobby. I'll try to buy as many of the components as I can. Just wanted to say that your videos have been very helpful. Thank you and keep rocking.
what degree were you doing before you got the electro-bug!! ; )
Well if you're into electronics due to these videos then go for computer engineering. As most of the CZcamsrs work with microcontrollers and digital logic ICs. It's not same as electronics.
Nice shot
@@keithking1985 Bachelor of Science
@@muflah not really. I've been interested in electronics as long as I can remember. What I meant was that these videos are really encouraging and helpful.
Nice Video! I would add the 74HC595 Shift Register. I realy Love that chip, ist fast, and you can Use ist on the SPI Bus. I need one of them in almost every Projekt. For example to controll many LEDs.
Good call!
WS281X gang
dear do you need purchasing chip we are electronic components supplier?
What basic components do you probably need to have?
GreatScott: Well, just buy all the kits lol!
Trust me, even the kits are not enough...!!!
the answer is easy: can't know what value you will need. Also with kits some values are missing, and you're forced to mix the values (it's not always a good idea)
Arnab Ghosh thats so true
@@arnab_blue you work for electronics company??
Well they are simply too cheap to buy separately if you value your time at all. Many of those kits cost less then 4$ including shipping. Passive components usually just aren't a cost consideration outside of mass production.
You're looking great, very fit. I've just completed my EE degree and also lost 40lbs from cycling and I'm very happy to accomplish my goals. As an aside, EE is the best profession ever and thank you for sharing it with the world.
Thanks for the feedback 😁
How was the whole process for you? Is it really demanding to the point of 'Why am I doing this?' or was it more of a 'I'm studying what I've always wanted and am happy with it!' type of feeling?
I'm asking you because I'm almost done with my Abitur (German college?) and really want to become an Electrical Engineer. Your thoughts are very welcome and I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
7 years wow. Really do appreciate your videos. You're informative, engaging and entertaining. Thanks for all you do!
Not missing much here except a few of the IC's which can usually be worked around, love video's like this and the compilations of viewer suggestions that come up, every few years what's available on the market changes enough that seeing these every now and again is a great idea.
This is a fantastic overview for anyone. Really well done!

Well, that is amazing and it is cutting a huge amount of waiting time for me. Thank you very much for this, GreatScott!
I have been looking for a solid essential components overview for a while - this is not just solid, this is great! Thank you so much for making this, I can't overstate how helpful this is for a noob like myself.
This is literally the list I've been trying to compile right now! You're my hero for today.
Youre my best electronic-teacher ty so much!
You are CURRENTly my favorite CZcamsr. I POSITIVELY can't wait for More
Thanks👍
I feel more intelligent just trying to understand what is going on in your videos! Great channel.
I just want to thank you Scott for all videos you have made in these years, i have learned more than i could imagine from them. Realy thank you!
Great video as always. I've been playing around with electronics for about the same time and 90% of the components you mentioned are here as well in the exact same storage boxes!
Few things I learned since I started with electronics:
- Start a project, however simple, and then buy components. Few projects in you will get wide variety of stuff. Few more projects in you will have too much stuff and never exactly everything necessary for that next project.
- Label and catalogue everything. This is hobestly the most annoying thing about electronics.
- SMD components are super compact when compared to TH. Yes, you may need TH to prototype on a breadboard, but a SMD kit can be much more comprehensive and compact.
- If you order PCB, go with SMD! Honestly SMD stuff is so much easier so solder and your project can be much smaller.
- Just keep SMD sizes sane. 0603 minimum for resistors/capacitors, use only those ICs that have visible pins to touch with iron.
- Have a cheap iron with adjustable temperature and a tip that can be replaced with a small one (by some chance I have the ERSA one that is on Great Scott's workbench).
Great tips, i would only change one thing and it's on using SMDs if ordering PCBs. I would always go with trough-hole components when ordering PCBs, and SMDs if doing the PCBs myself (tho I can understand that it's not as easy to make the traces for some smaller SMD ICs), since I would not need to drill the holes myself on the purchased PCB and through-hole parts are still easier than SMDs to solder from my experience, and specially with cheaper soldering irons. Now, if I'm making the PCB myself, I'll want to drill as little as possible so I'll always go as much SMD as possible, just avoiding SMD connectors like the plague for durability sake.
really thanks for your tips..
i love electronics but i don't know how to start, if i start making some simple projects from google is it right? what's the next step then?
I appreciate your help thanks again.. and sorry for my English, I'm not a native English speaker 🌻
@@sumaia4414 search for 555 timer or 4017 circuits and your gonna find a bunch and they'l teach you electronics
a few parts that also come in handy a bunch of the time: h bridge ic for motor control, shift register, relays, and the generic soldering boards. and if going more into active components, then small motors/servos, and lcd/oled screens, and rotary encoders are also really useful. after building my projects, i make sure to have extra of that i listed since i know it will probably be used later on anyway.
Been a huge fan of your channel for years now...and have become very familiar with your calm and pleasant voice. This is the first time I have seen your face! Nice to see you!
Anyway...thank you for this...another awesome video. Super helpful as always.
Also...love your clear and well drawn diagrams. You have amazing penmanship and drawing skills!
I just want to say I really do enjoy your videos and am gonna become a patreon (sp) supporter for the first time today. I’m 47yo and have tinkered all my life with electronics but have learned so much from you in the last few months since I discovered your channel during the COVID quarantine. Your camera angles are perfect, amateur photographer here too, and your notes take and explained in real time are spot on. I appreciate you and am grateful for the work you put into these videos to share with us all. Thank you! Adam Bird - Indiana, USA
Thanks for the support and feedback😁
A component I use very often is the DIP switch. I got a little plastic box full of them, they can handle 25mA and they're rated for 24V which is good enough for me. They are very cheap and can be soldered on a perf board or put into a breadboard very easily.
I really like the new intros where he talks to us first. 😁
You’re my favorite electronics content creator! I have taught myself everything online and reading books and built my own AC 110v -12v-2v adjustable power supply! If the world ends Friday, I just wanted to thank you for everything!
You really do have a great channel man.
The way you introduce and then do is what every "How to" video should be.
SEEEEE YOUUU NEXT TIMEEEEE! Awesome, I realy like it.
He's gonna explode one day 😂
I would really recommend breakout boards for common smd packages. Like soic, sop, qfn, dfn, sot23-6 and sot223. The pin count doesnt really matter on most of these as you can fit an ic with a lower pin count on a board with a higher one.
I have been looking for something like this for years now, thank you so much GS!
Ah! Thank you so much for this! I've got a lot of components on this list, but it's nice to know what I might be missing.
Displays, such as lcds, OLEDs or -7segment ones
The most important component I still am looking for, is a functioning brain😔
True
TheMrminimario so true
@@greatscottlab Hey Scott could you tell me whether it is possible to carry homemade racing drones on flights. Would like some crazy drone project from you.
Yeah this stuff is never easy to understand, and that after burning a few phone charges etc....
ha! ha! funny, : )
One of the best basic electronic videos. Thank you so much for your work
Thank you for this video. @ 6:15 I would recommend the mcp6002 instead as it offers rail to rail input as well as output. The MCP602 is rail to rail output only.
6:18
Greatscott - rail to rail
Techmoan - reel to reel
HAHAH
I see, you're a man of culture as well
Excellent choice of the essential components. I would add one ESP8266 module or any board that uses it, like Wemos D1 mini, they are cheap and really interesting to work with them.
Danke für das sehr hilfreiche Video! Ich bin immer wieder begeistert von den schönen Detailaufnahmen und den spannenden Projekten!
Outstanding! Completely informative - yet succinct review of components ! Best I have ever seen !! Thanks a ton GreatScott !!
Thank you very much😁
shrinktubes and cables are missing ;)
yea jumper wires and dupont wires are too important to be forgotten
@@Rainbow_Sword Jumper cables are mentioned at the end
i would also list the soldering boards he usually uses. great for moving your project from your breadboard onto a permanent installation. project ends up a bit funky and usually not the optimal layout, but great for single projects.
@@carlos2004 do you know where I can purchase the exact same pcb board that he uses? I can only find strip boards or circuit boards with paint markings
Help 😅
Yaaa !! Shrink Tubing !! Magic stuff !! ;)
Your handwriting is ridiculously good, and makes me unreasonably furious >_< Thanks for the video!!!!
Resistors and capacitors I understand. Inductors I still have no idea what they do. Great overview for basic component supplies. I need to expand my collection now. Thanks for sharing!
I have been doing this for over 45 years and this is the best list, ever!!
Thank you😁
having some small relays and optocouplers at hand was always usefull
I think shift registers are also useful in many projects
If you're dealing with data or more than a couple LEDs, then absolutely. They make designing LED grids so much easier. Do they have other uses?
They are always my go-to option when it comes to multiplexing outputs
@@soranuareane E.g. extending the amount of digital ouputs( I mean connected controlled devices) for D1 mini-like ESP8266 or ESP32 boards.
@@soranuareane : Some people use them to handle serial transmission. You can also use them to make rotary counter or make automat which uses one-hot code. With other components they can arithmetic operations like multiplying, dividing and even generating CRC codes.
Great video as always, looking forward for a similar one in the tools section. 🙂
Also, a ton of thanks for putting all the Aliexpress links into the descriptions! 🙏
That’s a really comprehensive list, thanks for the video.
I have one more to add: the great ULN2003A, which is super cheap and can replace 7 switches (it's a Darlington transistor assy).
Could you please give a brief explanation about how it works?
@@qps9380 yeah. You supply low-power control signal (Arduino GPIO, for instance), and it controls high-power (500mA) load. It has 7 channels, i.e. a single chip can convert 7 independent signals. Flyback diodes are integrated, too.
It's somewhat similar to 7 mosfets, but in practice it's 7 NPN pairs.
@@Gurux13 yes, but keep an eye on total power dissipation per package. Seven times a half is three and a half. I wouldn't try putting 3.5 amps through it. Other than that, yeah it's a very handy chip for boosting multiple outputs.
This video is so satisfying.
It reminds me of my school days in electronics engineering.
I've watched many of your videos, it always attracts my attention that how you speak in a rythmic way. 😊
woow, love it. I also love collecting electronics parts. hoping soon i can also build my own electronic lab with complete sets of tools just like yours.
Electronics is hands down the most fun hobby I have ever had. A lot to learn, and once you start to get the basics, you can build whatever and whenever you want..
@@ZeroMass And it can be really cheap too if you have a place you can salvage parts from
agree with ZeroMass 100%, electronics is the best thing ever to learn,, : )
Yeah thats true. Especially this time of pandemic where people are forced to stay home, doing some electronics stuff relieved the pain of boredsome.
Tackle boxes are also great for component storage, and they're pretty cheap. For labeling, I just use a permanent marker. You can always erase "permanent" marker with acetone (nail polish remover) or IPA.
For real ipa?
@@josephsnodgrass5875 Yeah, but here IPA means isopropyl alcohol, not India Pale Ale. :D
The "electrons" around you are happy.
Your Video is the easiest to understand than any explanation in Japanese. Thanks. I started collecting the "Essential Electronics Components" you showed. I like the "Electronic Basics" series.
A very useful video of things to buy for an electronics kit of parts. I'd like to see more videos delving into more components and things that are needed and even not so often needed. Then you could always do one for tools too.
I love the neatly drawn diagrams in your videos, they really round everything off.
Would it be possible to do a video series on IC's? like, what they are called, how they're used etc?
Sir, you skipped the star of your channel -- pens and highlighters ;-)
And smearing perfectly good ink with highlighters
It's all probably stabilo
Great job!😀 I love your videos! Keep going Great Scott!😀
You are amazing !
Your videos are AWESOME!
Keep up the hard and GREAT work.
For "low speed" and low power switching application, I recommend the BSS138. Depending on the Drain Source voltage, you can handle these tiny N-channel MOSFET with a µC digital output. Use it to amplifier a 12V PWM with 2kHz for example.
I remember an old "basic tool" video🤔
I might do an updated tools video if viewers enjoy this video.
@@greatscottlab Yes please do that video
@@greatscottlab yes please!

Awesome all encompassing video. I feel not only is this a good resource to study repeatedly for beginners but professionals also.
Great video, you mention the most common components needed for electronics projects.
If only you had posted this video a couple of years ago... I could practically run a danish aliexpress.

Thanks for watching :-)
@@greatscottlab It's my pleasure :-)
Thanks for all the videos. I learned a lot from you. Greetings from the Ruhrgebiet
Great video! One addition I would make is a 16 bit Led shift register like the TLC6C5816-Q1 for things such as multiplexing
Was waiting when he's gonna upload. And walla
Because of lockdown i don't have a single resistor laying around me😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
oh social distancing 🤪
Resistance is futile
I get all my components from old electronics I find by the road lol
Really great video, I am an electrical engineering student myself and the components u mention is also the same the university recommends as go to components.
This was great! Thank you! It would be cool to see this done from an audio point of view.
Amazing list! On the MCU side I would add a few parts: I'm using the new PIC16F MCUs for low level tasks, since they have core independent peripheral, built-in digital logic, op-amp/pga, even hardware PID controller. For more demanding tasks I'm using the STM32F4 MCU with FPU, oh... and the ESP32. I'm not a fan of the Arduino environment, and AVR boards.
How does the new PIC compare to STM's lower end lineup? I've been using STM8S003/103 for all my smaller projects due to their low cost and other benefits
PIC16 is not worth wasting you time learning anymore, and microchip is very unfriendly with their bad compilers. Go for anything ARM or RISC V. STM32 is probably fine.
The newer SAMD boards are also pretty powerful
Hey, you should make a video about storing these components most efficient and cheap way.
The way Scott did it is fairly efficient already. If you want to go the cheap way, just sort the parts into small bags and put them into storage containers.
He is already talking about it around 2:00, there is also cheaper ones without wall mounting option and more smaller depending on your needs
@@Makoto778 I am doing it already, but its not that convenient.
@@Mindplay591 I mean more indepth.
@@atahandoruk Yeah, I've always considered proper storage boxes, but I don't really have much space where I live. I actually keep components stored under my bed, or on my bookshelf.
Keep it up Sir! Thanks for making awesome videos!
From 🇵🇭
great video and a perfect way to start gathering components. Thanks for sharing
Hey GreatScott!, I live in Germany and could buy the parts at Reichelt. Now my question is, if I should purchase the parts there, or just buy them much cheaper at Aliexpress. Is there a big difference of quality between those parts? Or is the quality almost the same?
@@gormenfreeman499 I think none of such simple components are made in Germany any more. Everything is imported from Asia anyways. Reichelt, for example, is just a distributor. Nothing wrong with supporting them, of course.
If you can support local go for it, import duties are shit expensive in RSA I'd rather get it from my local stores to support them.
IS someone also able to explain to me what a mosfet driver does and why it is so necesary?
I will do a video about it sooner or later.
The mosfet has some gate capacitance. If you want to switch your mosfet quickly, you need to charge the gate capacitor quickly. A gate driver lets you do this, and might throw in some other niceities.
When switching from a low logic signal to a high logic signal, transistors behave like resistors, and they can heat up quite a bit. The faster you can switch the transistors, the less heat is produced.
If there is too much of a heat build up, you'll fry the transistor, since they are not meant to operate at high heats
Before the internet and search engines I would go to my local library and find a book on the subject in the American series "The Idiot's Guide To." eg "The Idiots Guide To Calculus." These days libraries are an endangered species.
Here is an explanation/example:

Thank you for taking the time to make this informative video.
"Sos un craaack maestro". En Argentina les decimos asi a los genios como tu. Muy muy buen video.
can someone please explain what bootstrap means for electronics at 7:48?
I have been trying to figure it out watching videos and all, but i cannot make sense of it
Bootstrap is needed for high side switching. If you consider for example an Buck converter, the Mosfet is between the voltage source and the inductor. You want the Vgs higher than Vth, usually arround 10V to make sure the mosfet is fully saturated. if you have an input voltage of 12V, when you turn it on there will be 0V at the mosfet Source, so you will have a Vgs voltage of 12V. But as the mosfet starts conducting, the source will be at 12V as well so the Vgs will be 0V. You need a bootstrap configuration to raise the Gate voltage above the Source voltage so that the mosfet will be on as a high side switch.
Sorry for the long post.
@@hodissergiu8883 Well said.
@@hodissergiu8883 I'm sure this is right, but..whaaaaaaaat.
@@visualeffectschannel Because if you don't. the mosfet lets out the magic smoke. Think of it this way: A fire hose has a valve, a tiny itty bitty control valve. When you turn on the water, if you put fire hose pressure on the itty bitty control valve, with nothing in the fire hose input, the control valve will shoot into the hose, and you will break the thing. My best metaphor.
TotalWarChronicles - Ignore the other responses, especially the one about the firehose because it’s total nonsense. Bootstrapping in this case is referring to using a higher voltage to bias a device above it’s supply voltage. Let me explain...
N-channel MOSFETS are often preferred for switching because they are generally faster and have lower on resistance, Rds(on), compared to P-ch MOSFETS. If you need a high-side switch, P-ch is simple to use because they are turned on by pulling the gate below the source, i.e. apply -Vgs. However, if you want the performance advantage of an N-ch, you will need to figure out how to generate a gate voltage higher than the source, i.e. apply +Vgs - something that is usually easy when the source is tied to ground (aka low-side switching) but difficult if your source is at or near the supply voltage (aka high-side switching). This brings in *bootstrapping* - that is, using a bias voltage (gate voltage) higher than the supply. The IR2110 won’t generate this high voltage for you but you can get it a few ways, e.g. maybe it exists elsewhere on the board or system or perhaps use a charge pump circuit. Anyway, Great Scott is saying the IR2110 is nice because it conveniently allows the use of bootstrapping thanks to the high-side driver output being isolated from the rest of the voltages inside the chip.
You missed about "shift registers"!!!
don't forget the h bridge ic's for small motors. pretty handy for mechanical projects.
regi_A.Lshift();
74HC595 and maybe HCT variant.
For Arduino MCP23017 works better
Great video! All of those discreet components only need one thing, hook up wire and clip leads. They are not really tools but part of the test circuit.
Nice describing man. Easy to understand ur information. Thanks dude.
I think it's a little unfair to say that JLC has fast shipping times without talking about how they do it. If you want fast shipping time, you have to go with DHL, and can expect a lot. I just ordered 6 different PCBs that came to $21. The shipping on DHL was over $17. If you go with their standard shipping, which costs much less, you can expect to wait at least 2-3 weeks before you see your PCBs. I do use them quite often, and I do try to go with DHL most of the time, but I can't always justify the cost. If the PCB cost $2 or $4, and shipping costs me $12, it's just too much.
So, yes, you can get fast shipping from JLC, but you need to expect to pay for the privilage.
I wouldn't complain so much about it, sure beats making my own PCBs using toner, copper foil, plywood veener, and dangerous chemicals...
2:17
nope, have you never dropped that box? and then clean everything up again.
nevertheless they are handy

Thanks for the video, this was exactly what I was looking for!
Would love to see you do a video just like this on your most commonly used tools too!
You started your channel on oct 2(the birth date of Mahatma Gandhi)
Be jealous...I live half a kilometre away from a repair competent shop I don't need to stock up on anything except for microcontrollers
In regulators, 3.3V Liner regulator like LD33V is also essential in my taste. And plenty of single-cored small wires from Ethernet Cable to make easy, small, temporary connections on the fly for testing or remove the insulation of a piece, straighten it and BOOM!!!! you have jumpers for PCB soldering if Silver Copper wire is not found.
I watch your videos from freshman year until I graduated college. Your videos also kinda helped me finish my final project. Thanks man. ONE IMPORTANT QUESTION, Is "GreatScott" refers to Dr. Emmet Brown swearings ? That's all. I WILL SEE YOU NEXT TIME !
You missed most important thing "power supply" @greatscoot
We will see you NEXT TIME! :-) Thanks, Scott!
The wall mount storage drawers shown are on sale at Aldi in the US 1-2 times per year for under $6 each. There are 2 versions, the version shown in the video with the yellow dividers, and another with the same case size, but fewer/larger drawers.
Thank you! So awesome to see this info. Keep it up.
