| − | Open Circuits is a wiki for sharing [[open source electronics]] knowledge, schematics, board layouts, ports and parts libraries. This include open hardware [[Music Player]]s, [[atomic microscope]]s, [[PC]], [[PDA]] and [[Open Mobile Gadgets|mobile phone]]s, and [[battery|batteries]]. Please help us to build this resource by submitting your component descriptions, projects, techniques, and PCB footprints.

| |
| − | == [[Components]] ==
| |
| − | Lists of components, where to purchase them, how to use them. For many components there are links to projects using that particular component, this is especially true for microcontrollers, for example follow the links down to PIC microcontrollers and you will find many project links as well as tutorials.....

| |
| − | Perhaps it will be answered, perhaps not. Google for it first in the spirt of RTFM. Please do not ask us to do a school project for you.

| − | Looks like we are defining this by way of who contributes and what. I ( [[russ_hensel]] ) am a new member so may or may not have it right.

| − | This is what I think:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *An introduction to Electronic theory, suitable for the hobbiest.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *Guide to locating and using components and tools.
| |

| |
| − | *Details on how to build various projects.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *Building some sense of community amoung we builders.
