Learn the basic building blocks of electronics, digital systems, and computer architecture.
This module is a beginner-friendly introduction to digital electronics. Together, we'll learn how the most important building blocks of digital systems work, and incrementally put together a simple computer with registers, bus, ALU, memory, and instruction set.
You can think of it as a "first course" on electronics & digital architecture with beginners in mind. Our journey covers the basics of electronics down to the molecular level, touching popular analog components, relays, vacuum tubes, transistors, logic gates, memory devices, math circuits, control logic, and much (much!) more. All these topics are filled with hands-on exercises and circuits that we build together as we go.
At the end of this module you'll have a clear understanding of how a very simple computer works; from the exchanges that happen at the atomic level inside the hardware, to a machine design that is able to store, load, and perform math with data.
The tools you'll need
All software we'll use are free & cross-platform. Examples of simulators we use during our lectures are EveryCircuit, Falstad Circuit Simulator, Autodesk TinkerCad, and Logisim Evolution.
We also use breadboards to experiment and test small circuits and ideas, but you can definitely follow along even if you don't own one.
Is this course for you?
This is a self-contained course with no prerequisites. If you always wanted to know how a simple computer ticks at its lowest/hardware level, then this course is definitely for you!
I specifically tailored this course for beginners, and a lot of the content was designed with programmers in mind. Many professional programmers I encountered in my years in the industry have no idea what really goes on under the hood of the machines they depend on. If this sounds familiar, this is your chance to break the pattern and finally own this knowledge.
