That made no sense at all. Please explain more.

Sorry, as I said, I have a doubt in specific, just like indications to further advance the studies.

so what do you want ? by studying do you mean you are following a course that supplies materials or do you mean you have decided to learn yourself and need some stuff to read ?

Sorry, I used the google translator ...

I want to learn, and I need something to read.

so are you needing to learn the symbols use in schematics or do you mean how to understand what a circuit does ?

you studying to read electrical schematics. then you need to show the electrical schematics materials you have learned from this study.
draw by hand the electrical schematics. or use a schematic software tool

The two, symbols of connections, and someone else to show me.

The focus of my study is more to interpretation than pro drawing itself, but quelquer suggestion is valid.

You can only "interpret" a schematic by understanding what the symbols represent and how those parts work. Then you can break a schematic into subsections and analyse each block in isolation and then understand it's effect on the overall circuit.

I already know all these symbols, I need something more advanced, as a symbol of Power Port for example.

I've studied, basic electronics, analog electronics, digital electronics, etc ...

I need something advanced ...

I can play a wiring diagram, but I want to go further.

you have tested a wiring diagram. and its works  :-+  so what next Ammm...  :-//  , so now you want to go further, and build a supercomputer.   :-DD  why is it funny the others will tell you why.

post the schematics circuit wiring diagram so others can help .

You fail to get specific. what do you personally see as advanced?
What do you understand in analog electronics, what do you not understand in analog electronics.

Do you understand this? Or do you not understand this?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation_amplifier

Give us an example of something you do understand, and something you do not understand. And why.

Guys, sorry for not being specific, but the topic of the idea was to have issues of suggestions to improve the reading of the electric scheme.  :palm:

Kaio - I think the biggest problem here is your difficulty in communicating exactly what you want.

Google translate is a marvellous thing - but it is not always clear for even general conversation, let alone when the discussion starts getting technical.  We understand some of what you have done and that you want to learn more - but we aren't sure exactly what you want.

I know this might be difficult, but I would suggest talking to someone with better english skills, explaining what you want to say and have them write out something.  If they have some electronics background, that would be very useful.

As an example....  Do you understand this circuit?:

(Just a random example from the internet.)


If not, what parts do you need help with?

My wife just asked me if I had checked the OP's profile... Kaio is 14 years old, we should take this into account when helping him.

@Kaio: do you know this book? http://crsouza.com/2008/07/11/the-art-of-electronics/
I don't know if it has been translated into Portuguese, but I am sure that your English skills will soon be good enough to digest it. This book is a good starting point to get into electronics. The next step should be finding an electronics design tool, there are a few freeware ones. Then make your circuit, built it up on a breadboard, or make a PCB, and learn by experimenting. Of course the first thing that you need is: an idea of what you want to build.

Exactly what I wanted!
I'll be clearer next time ... Sorry for the topic ...
About The Art of Electronics, I already have his PDF here, I'll read it as soon as I can.
I am currently reading the Beginner's Guide to Reading Schematics Third Edition - Stan Gibilisco.
Thank you if you can point me to more books, especially on electrical schematics.
