    I was away from electronics and this video helped me retrieve most of what I've learnt in school. So thanks for your service

    I took electrical engineering in college and this was by far the best instruction I have seen. Goes to show you don't need to pay a lot of money for an education

    Excellent tutorial. I am getting into fixing guitar amplifiers and effects pedals. However, when looking at the schematics I would get discouraged rather quickly. This helped immensely. Thanks again.

    If your not a teacher ...you should be. Even a Nemoid like me can understand what you explained !
    Thanks,

    I'm sure he is not a teacher
    He is more than a teacher
    Must be at professor level
    His accent is easiest
    His style beggars description
    And in short
    No one else can make such a pretty brief video full of info leaving nothing behind
    We feel saturated
    Fine sir you did excellent job
    Plz dont stop
    Make more such videos as this to teach us electronics

    This is so very similar to when I worked in a Zn processing plant and had to draw the circuitry of pipes traveling through the plant, different pumps, filtration and added chemicals would represent the different electronics components I guess?

    @SDsailor7 10 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have a Fisher model 201 receiver that the power transformer get extremely hot!
    can't even keep my finger on it for more than a couple of seconds and i was wondering if you could tell me what is causing that.
    I turned on the receiver and played it a a fairly low volume but the transformer still overheats. Everything works on the receiver.
    Hope that you can point me in the right direction.
    Thank you

    Hey, great video but what I'm really missing here is how the signal flows through the schematic. That is something that still isn't clear for me and I haven't seen a video yet that explains that properly.

    • @HackaweekTV
      @HackaweekTV  11 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Think of electricity as water flowing from a hilltop to a valley below. The positive side of the circuit is the hilltop and the negative side is the valley. On the way down it can be made to do work as it passes through the components and they react to the flow.

  • @georgegates526
    @georgegates526 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is the way I learned as well, in the 1970's.. Clean and clear cut.
    But modern schematics have strayed away from the norm. They re-use any symbol, connection, or connection group funneling groups of wires into one wire. Then fanning them out with extra labellings YOU have to figure out.. Or leaving a symbol at the end of a wire and you have to find out where it is hidden on the next page. Making it harder for you to trace. BUT it's easier for today's engineer to draw, instead of grouping them in an orderly fashion. This takes effort, time, and larger sheets of paper, and: A solid, "thought through process on one sheet, that can be taken into the mind "as one COMPLETE thought". If it is a HUGE schematic. Use a large screen and use the same scaling technique that they use on maps.
    Down side: Costs more - requires plotters or large scale printers, or computers and large screens to print a complete unit on one page. (All that the boss hates. So it's not gonna happen..)
    So the repair technician bares the stress of figuring out the engineer drew, to repair the unit, with "a book of schematic pages".
    Symbols: If you are used to the older (better) symbols, you would have a hard time deciphering the new ones. The older symbols were straight forward, and easy to spot at a glance. The new ones, use (and re-use) symbols, that are so close in appearance, you could make a mistake in identifying the type of component it is.
    Also to add to the confusion the: flow, input, polarity, and the output can be anywhere and labeled anything.. Good luck.
