| Site to understand datasheets - a good idea? |
| (1/4) > >> |
| FriedMule:
I am really new to all this electronic stuff and most of what is on a datasheet is gobbledygook, I have no idea if a value is good or bad, have to be kept under or over, if it tells me that the component is useless for my purpose. In "frustration" have I searched for a simple "click and understand" guide, one where you select the component, find the strange abbreviation or wording, click on it and get a down to earth explanation. I.e. Capacitor -> max voltage -> "The highest Voltage the capacitor can withstand without burning off. You can always use a higher max value then you use in your circuit. But do never use a capacitor with a lower max voltage then what is running through your circuit. [Click here or more detailed info] If I buy a domain, set up some basic frame, and forever keeps the guide free for everybody, would you maybe help by contributing some small explanations like the above? |

Max before anything. Don't exceed that. Done. |

That would be like setting up a site to explain 1 + 1 =2. Plenty of those around (Allaboutcircuits etc.) |

So there is a site where you can easily find lets say VCEO for a BJT? |
| TimFox:
Maybe this one (one of many that comes up on a Google search for "datasheet explanation"): https://www.sparkfun.com/tutorials/223 Or this one (same search) that specifically explains VCEO, VCBO, and other transistor parameters: https://www.electronics-notes.com/articles/electronic_components/transistor/transistors-specifications.php |
