Track Brief & Description

In this course you will be able to use CAD tools such as schematics, PCB layout, and routing using CAD software such as kiCad to design and analyze your custom PCB.

The main purpose of the electronics course is to take you from the ground up to reach the ability and skills to build your own custom PCBs. The course will cover the essential concepts of the required physics (Ohm’s law, basic circuit analysis, KVL, basic components, basic RC and LC circuits, etc.) as well as the use of a CAD software to design your PCBs (For example KiCAD or any available CAD software) and simple design concepts to make your PCBs feasible for manufacturing.
