Sorry in advance, I'm sure this has been asked a hundred times. What sort of stuff do I need to get a start? I've ordered a few TTL "Grab Bags" and am waiting for those to come in. What is some other stuff that I should sort of stock up on in advance? I did get a scope
, and have 2 DMMs. I assembled a little "DIY" ESR/Capacitance meter this evening. Seems most schematics I look at, and the very few I can read, always seem to rely on something I don't have. Inverter, decade counter, etc.. Does anyone have suggestions for a "kit" to build of basic components to have on hand? What sort of stuff should I just have on hand for blowing up/needing for intro level stuff?
Things I do have on the way:
Ceramic Cap assortment
Electrolytic Cap Assortment
Plenty Of resistors on hand already
Some 74 series "grab bags"
DIP sockets
Various Voltage Regulators
Resettable Poly Fuses
PerfBoard
Transistor Assortment
Heat-shrink Tubing
