So I am now about to get the fundamental "Lego" but what should I buy? I imagine: 1n400x, 2n2222, 555 timer, lm339 but what more? |

You could buy (or replicate) pre-assembled kits like this: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01MZ87USD OSOYOO Electronic Component Kit (Total 1390 PCS) - LED Diodes, 30 Values Resistors,Electrolytic Capacitor Package, Ceramic Capacitors, Common Diodes, Common Transistor I believe there have been previous discussions here in EEVblog about common electronic components to stock |

I am sure that there have to be lots of treads about what to get and I have tried several ways to search, but to write the word "components" in this forum, is like writing needle in a farming forum:-) |
