I can see how that would happen. When I first read the book I was definitely not a blank slate. But it's still a good recommendation for those with a little bit of knowledge who want a deeper understanding. At least it was for me. You'll only get so far without knowing the things in the book which are also introductory in nature.
If you don't know Ohm's law. You don't know what a resistor is. You've never built a simple circuit. Then this book may not be for you. Or it may if you're willing to put in the effort.
- vivzkestrel 2y agosee now this is where I could totally use a recommendation. I dont know what a capacitor is, what a resistor is or what ohm's law is. I would expect there is atleast one book out there that can teach even an absolutely noob like me how to build a microcontroller circuit board from scratch. I mean not on page 1 obviously but maybe on page 1037?
- YZF 2y agoThe way to do this back in the day was to read application notes (in real books ;) that the chip vendors would print and give you for free). You would have everything spelled out in example circuits that you could put together yourself. I'm not sure where things stand today. I googled and found one example: https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/aemDocuments/documents/APID/ApplicationNotes/ApplicationNotes/00215c.pdf https://ww1.microchip.com/downloads/aemDocuments/documents/A...
