In my continuing attempt to fill out the Basics area of this site I have added two new pages discussing Equivalent Resistance and Equivalent Capacitance. These are relatively simple but incredibly powerful tools which can be used to simplify complex circuits. Additionally these tools can be used in circuit design when you require a specific component value which is not readily available to you.

Nodes and Branches
I just wanted to make a quick post to let you guys know about an update to The Basics section of this site. I’ve added an overview of Nodes and Branches as an introduction to these two terms in preparation for future additions looking into Kirchoffs Rules, Nodal and Mesh Analysis and Thevinin Analysis.
It’s Been A While
I wanted to write a post to touch base with you all and provide a bit of an update on where I’ve been, what I’ve been up to and the future of this site. I know its been a long time since I’ve provided any new content and I apologize for this. I want to be clear though that this project has not been abandoned, it has very much been on my mind and I hope to begin getting back to it moving forward.
For those of you who don’t know about 4 years ago I made the decision to return to school as an adult and begin studying engineering. I am happy to report at this time I am approaching completion of my second year in the Mechatronics Engineering program at a major Canadian University. Getting myself here though has filled most of my time and left me with limited resources to work on external projects.
That being said this site and my audio projects as a whole have been very much on my mind and I have been working towards a time when I felt I could begin producing content again. At this point the demands of my academic career and my other projects are beginning to feel more manageable and it is my hope to once again begin building this site.
I plan to begin by reworking and expanding the “Basics” area of this site to provide more detailed introductions to techniques of circuit analysis, design and the practical skills necessary to implement your designs. By focusing first on this area I hope to give you guys a strong foundation to understand electronics better and also which I can use as references for the more some more interesting projects I am hoping to undertake in the future.
