Hey Sup Forums, I want to learn some stuff about electrical engineering

Hey Sup Forums, I want to learn some stuff about electrical engineering.

I have one year left on my training to become an it-specialist in system integration (or at least that's how google calls it in english...).
After that I want to study electrical engineering.

Are there any good books that teach noob electrics with the help of arduinos or stuff?
Not just "Do this, do that, ponder about how it is working.", more like "Here is a project and I tell you exactly how stuff works by teaching you the math behind it."

There are more than enough Arduino tutorials out there, but I want something with a more scientific aproach.

Thanks in advance!

Fachinformatiker -> Elektrotechnik
Same path I took.
May god save you, because the first 4 semesters of EE is nothing but boring, dry ass mathematics with a handful of interestingt modules/topics.

If you power through that it gets interesting though.

Watch Digilent Analog Electronics series on YT,
watch Razavi Electronic Circuits series on YT

I honestly didn't think Electrical Engineers browsed Sup Forums, on the basis of the fact that it's an employable career that requires you to understand technology. Things Sup Forums just doesn't do.

I fucking love math dude!
Also, Fachinformatiker in germany... Shit's not as cash as I hoped it to be. But it get's me my Fach-Abi and that was much more efficient for than just doing three years of school for the same...

Will do, thank you very much.

I also thought about posting this on Sup Forums, but those guys are scary bullies!

/DIY/ has /ohm/ general constantly where they have a reccomended reading section as well as people who will answer any dumb questions you could possibly think of. I personally found forest mim's getting started with electronics to be really go for starting out.

Thank you, I will look out for it.


By the way, does anyone know of a really good/cheap electronics set that has all the basics?

I can't make out the difference between all these chink sets other than some of them are more towards 3.3V and some are 5V. I guess this has something to do with the raspberry pi and similiar devices only taking 3.3V?

A neet would like to know more about Fachabitur + Fachinformatiker. Elaborate

>I fucking love math dude!
Fourier series will change that
and surface integrals

I learned my entire Degree off of youtube cus i didnt feel like going to class. you can learn a months worth of material in a hour or 2 if you have a good enough foundation

Go to /diy/, the /ohm/ general.
Art of electronic is a very nice enciclopedic block if you feel like starting with analog, but is also a bit dispersive in a way.
In any case, after you got down the basic you can start experiment with small design, just google whatever you want to build and look at the different way people did it and how you could think you could do it.
Also keep the circuit apllet on this site (falstad.com) on a tab. Is not professional or 100% accurate by any means, but I found out it solves 90% of small analog circuits if you ever need a simulation

>math is sooooo hard, like O-M-G like when are we ever going to use it!?!?
kill yourself

You should just have gone to school, lel

In germany we this thing called Fachabitur, it's the second highest school-rank other than Abitur. This may not be 100% true, but as a rule of thumb it is.

It simply enables you to study on "Hochschulen" which are an equivalent to colleges I guess. And in some cases you can also study at a university.

The Fachinformatiker has nothing to do with this. It's a german "Ausbildung" that qualifies you to work in IT environments. There are "Anwendungsentwickler" which are "Coders" and "Systemintegratoren" which are "Sys-Admins" then there are "Systemelektroniker" but I know nothing about these guys :/
This whole thing is somewhat comparable to a trade-school, but you learn in a company that trains you and go to school between work. And in my case, I also get the higher education that allows me to study afterwards.

Why, I lost no time, have three years working experience, learned a trade AND have my higher education that I need for studying when I finished.

I don't know if you are trolling here, but in my case it was a win win situation. Abitur in germany is laughable anyways nowaday.

Thanks. Art of electronic is the one thing I want to buy next. I'm not a huge fan of books I have to pay for, but you're not the first one to recommend this to me.

I'm more of a bulk learner anyways.
I guess the thing with mathematics is that many people stopped caring early on in school and then never found a suitable entry point later on.
I had the same problem, until I said "Fuck it" and started from the beginning again. I felt like a child doing basically elementary school math, but it was a necessary step for me in order to get on a level where I understood college math. Now I love math,

/ohm/ has a bunch of resources.

>Thanks. Art of electronic is the one thing I want to buy next. I'm not a huge fan of books I have to pay for, but you're not the first one to recommend this to me.
>buying
To be fair I bought a copy, but I suggest to get a pdf now and buy later if you really get into it and you like and use it.
I might have a pdf/not scanned copy if you ask nicely

Learn C (Arduino) and/or Python (in case of RPi) and some basic laws (Ohm's law). Make basic projects with Arduino. I bought various sensors and other stuff like small displays and motors very cheap from Chinese ebay and played with them. Get an Arduino or RPi book with many projects. Learn to solder. Make some projects with perfboard by soldering stuff to it and using just the atmel chip (that Arduino uses). You could probably design and make impressive PCBs and projects by knowing very little about EE and just looking at reference manuals for the chips or example projects... I think Arduino is easier than RPi when you start out EE. RPi is good where you need processing power or other features.

*asking nicely*
Could you please send it to me? I will buy it anyways, but it would be nice to have it just right now.

Thanks.

That's what I wanted to do for the beginning. Thanks. Already can code in C and Python, so not that much of a problem here I hope.

This looks like it gets pretty expensive with shipping to germany. But thanks anyway.

Oh shipping included. Sorry, I just saw it now.
This is really good. I will consider it. Thanks.

I'd recommend starting with arduino as well. Completed my electronics degree last month. Don't know jack shit but microcontrollers are a good starting point and arduino is super flexible with a ton of resources available. Goto Instrutables and Make too. Torrent some books.

I'm taking calc 3 and diff eq next year in highschool, I took a couple physics courses at my nearby community college and was wondering if I would need to do any more prerequisites for EE? Will I be able to skip to the fun stuff right away?

Also any good books to read before starting?

I have it already up on mega
grab it while it's hot

Thanks brave user.
