SUMMARY

To learn how to build electronic circuits by hand, individuals should explore starter electronics kits that include schematics and explanations of circuit operations. Resources such as the prototype boards discussion on the Physics Forums and purchasing kits from Jameco are highly recommended. Additionally, utilizing free circuit layout software can enhance the learning experience. These methods provide practical, hands-on experience essential for applying theoretical knowledge in electronics.

PREREQUISITES
  • Basic understanding of electric circuits and solid-state devices
  • Familiarity with prototype boards and their applications
  • Access to free circuit layout software
  • Ability to read and interpret electronic schematics
NEXT STEPS
  • Research various starter electronics kits available online
  • Explore the Physics Forums thread on prototype boards for practical insights
  • Download and experiment with free circuit layout programs
  • Investigate additional resources for hands-on electronics projects
USEFUL FOR

This discussion is beneficial for beginners in electronics, educators seeking engaging teaching tools, and hobbyists looking to enhance their practical skills in building electronic circuits.

Welcome to the PF, Paul. :smile:

There is a helpful thread that is stuck at the top of the EE forum that discusses using various types of prototype boards to build circuits:

You might also consider buying a couple starter electronics kits to build. They usually come with a schematic and an explanation of the circuit operation, and are a great way to get started building things. Just do a Google search for electronics kits, and pick a couple that look interesting (radio receiver, etc.).

I just purchased a couple starter kits for a friends 12 year old boy from https://www.jameco.com/Jameco/content/electronic-kits.html
He's a smart kid but not doing that well in school. He's said it's boring; hence the kits that may stimulate more learning interest.

Sounds like he's found a great Mentor, Don! :smile:
