Ohm My Goodness, We're Booked Solid
Five new books join the SparkFun catalog today! From wires, to LEDs, and more!
Hello and welcome back to a literature-filled Friday Product Post here at SparkFun Electronics! This week, as you may have been able to tell, we have five new books for you to check out that are themed for beginners in hobby electronics. These are perfect launch pads for budding engineers and they are sure to teach them a thing or two before or during their first project. These books all cover different topics, so let's jump in and take a look at each of them!
Don't let batteries get you down! Learn all their secrets with Power Up, a 24 page zine of batteries, power, and cool facts about how to make your circuit GO!
Do you want to know more about resistance? Resistors feel simple yet confusing? Resistance Is Fruitful provides 24 pages of informative resistor FACTS!
Buttons and switches, simple, right? Nope! These simple mechanisms are a lot more complex than they are often given credit. They can be used in clever ways to create complex, interactive and responsive circuits, without any programming. Check out An Instructive Appreciation of Buttons and Switches is full of cool button facts!
Love LEDs is dedicated to explaining basic LED facts that can come in handy. Often LEDs are the first thing we learn, but that doesn't mean they're the most simple!
We know you love wires as much as we do. Wires connect everything around us! Everything that uses electricity has wires in some capacity. Wires come in so many shapes, sizes, materials and formats, each with its own reason to be used! Check out All About Wires full of WIRE FACTS!
That's it for this week. As always, we can't wait to see what you make! Shoot us a tweet @sparkfun, or let us know on Instagram, Facebook or LinkedIn. Please be safe out there, be kind to one another! We'll be back with more new products next week so make sure to check back then. Happy hacking!
Hmm... I'm wondering if you've thought about offering a "package" of all 5 books?
