  • Hi!
    In this video I'm really excited to share the approach I took when I was first learning about circuits. I find that being given a bunch of equations and told to "solve a circuit" doesn't actually help when it comes to a more fundamental understanding.
    When it comes to circuits and the different components, it's very important to play around with them to truly understand their function.
    I was able to keep this video free of any math, but remember that if you choose to try these circuits yourself, math will be important, especially in order to choose the right values to protect the LED (take a look at the LED resource I linked and read the next section titled "What are LEDs used for?" to learn about why you need a resistor).
    I will be linking many resources down below in case you want to dive deeper.

    Great video, thanks. Electronics was my childhood hobby and when I was 16, I built my own 2W stereo amplifier. Sadly over the years I lost the knowledge of electronics and never practiced it any more. But now after watching your videos I realised what I missed. So, after many decades now I'm thing of restarting this hobby... a very nostalgic feeling ...

    Excellent video Kat! I’m a senior Computer Engineering student, and honestly the hands-on experience with circuits is such an important aspect to really learning how they work! Keep it up.
    Maybe you could make some videos on designing PCBs?

    • @KatVoltage
      @KatVoltage  Před 3 lety +1

      Thanks for the suggestion that is definitely a video I am planning 😁 & yes!!!! It’s so important!

    Awesome video I’m interested in going into electrical Engineering for college in 2022. I would really appreciate more beginner content like this maybe even some more circuit explanations/breakdowns. If possible could you also include some of the math and physics textbooks you used to get the fundamentals down they would be really helpful to me. I would also appreciate working through some electrical engineering physics/math problems and how best to study math and physics in general. I know you get a lot suggestions and comments and are really busy with your professional work so I just want to say All in all thank you so much for this video and this channel it’s people like you that make the world a better more fun place. 😁

    This was so easy to learn from! I’m an EE and I recently learned how to sauter but it was not great do you have any tips to improve or how I can practice more on that at home?

    • @KatVoltage
      @KatVoltage  Před 3 lety

      Try to order some kits with a pcb and components. Those used to help me a lot since the components are different sizes. There are some good videos up here on YT about common mistakes as well as techniques☺️

  • @shawnmuhr6211
    @shawnmuhr6211 Před 3 lety

    So, is capacitance related to resistance or do they just share similar properties? Thank you!

    • @shawnmuhr6211
      @shawnmuhr6211 Před 3 lety

      Or just capacitors I guess

    Oh my God you are gorgeous and simply amazing! Too bad you're married eh? Oh well that is what I thought! Anywhoo I need to find out how to increase the voltage of a DC circuit of 7 volts DC to 16 volts DC! As he was just trying to get somewhere in his ventures! BTW you don't wear your wedding ring do you very often eh that's a lot of importance derived from that babe! Hope everything is going well with you and your husband? Oops sorry for that babe but I didn't know that you had just been married on Mexico! Good for you! Have a happy marriage! Ciao Bella Out
