I would like to thank everyone over the last few days for all the help, I really appreciate it.
Now I'm onto the hands on experiments part of my program. They give you a "Digital trainer", its kinda just a piece of electronic equipment that you do experiments on. Its got logic indicators, clock generators, DC power supple, logic switches and data switches and more. It came with a tone of electronic parts too, from capacitors to resistors to LED's. I have to admit its a bit intimidating. I have to read the books, do the experiments and then of course, take the exams, 3 in all. You guys ever hear of a "Digital trainer", and can I claim on my resume I have had some "hands-on" experience with this? Its a pretty cool piece of equipment, but just a bit as I said, intimidating.
