So study math first

bottom up and top down

i started with top down for about half a year before switching to bottom up

top down = start with high level shit like arduinos and shit

bottom up = build up math and electronics foundations and work your way up to microcontrollers

top down is good but your productivity will be limited and you'll hit the brick wall of lack of fundamentals in about 6 months if you are dedicated

if you're pursuing electronics in college, do top down stuff before you get in, and do bottom up in college and you'll do really well academically and in career

Thx fam

if you're doing other engineering in college, just start with bottom up

yeah

for resources, learn calculus at khan academy

I'm just getting in as a hobby

if you haven't taken electricity and magnetism in highschool, make sure you get on that

So not sure bout the college aspects

you need to know like voltage current and resistance

and shit like that

once you get the basics of basics done, you're ready to do actual electronics

Is this suppose to be hard

what

what do you mean by high level people

oh

physics and math is like

the fundamental of the fundamentals

if you can't understand those, you're gonna have a hard time moving forward

you might find code easy, but that's a small part of electronics work

if you can't get past math, you'll find stuff that isn't the most basic shit extremely difficult

Any resources?

yes

if you're confident about math and physics

just buy art of electronics 3rd edition

college in a box tier book

if you're not, and if you want to just brute force your way through, youtube videos about arduino projects

and follow official tutorials

but to do like really complex custom projects you need to have a pretty good understanding of a lot of things before you can attempt something

Do you do this for a living?

kinda

i'm an electrical engineering student

3rd year

i'm interning at nvidia

Nice
