    Where do I start to learn electronics as a physics major?

    So I am currently in my second year of college in a physics major. I took my electromagnetism course in my second semester and I got a liking to it. However, the course was completely on a theoretical physics level and in the circuits chapter I didn't perform the best. Sadly I also flunked the...

    Dampen Inductive Kickback using Flyback Diode or RC Snubber?

    I am pulsing a 38mH coil (16 AWG wire wrapped around a small tube) with a IRFB4115pbf MOSFET at 66.6v (3 lipo 5200mAH "50C" battery's in series). It's a lot of juice! Using Lt spice I simulated this and found that the voltage spikes can reach up to 20kv. I am trying to figure out if I should use...

    LM2679-5.0 Switching Regulator Design

    I am designing a constant 5 volt output switching regulator that bucks 12 to 24 volts down to 5 volts while supporting 5 amps. It is used to boot up a Raspberry Pi with a 10 inch screen. At 12 volts, the Pi will boot up fine. At 24 volts, around halfway through the bootup, the regulator will...

    What sensors do these 'air' drumsticks use?

    So there are many electronic 'air' drumsticks in the market, such as Aeroband, Freedrum, Senstroke, Aerodrums, etc. I wanted to know what sensors do these use or might have used to do what they do. For example, the Aeroband Pocketdrum have a pair of drumsticks with sensors, and a pair of foot...
