I have been trying to collate my notes on CMOS transistors, circuitry, basic electrical engineering --- all suitable for hardware verification using a #ProofAssistant

The goal is to provide a guided set of exercises for a "pure-ish" mathematician who wants to understand the basic moving parts of a computer, specifically for floating-point calculations and numerical linear algebra.

I have discovered, much to my surprise and chagrin, that a lot of electrical engineering textbooks lack good exercises!

Truthfully, I am only happy with a half dozen exercises or so (but I have a jaundiced view of my own writing, it's never good...it's only ever "adequate").

I wonder how people in #EE come up with good exercises, since most textbooks have exercises of the form, "Here's a convoluted circuit diagram you'll never see in real life anywhere, ever. Analyze it."

#WiringDiagrams are provided with connections' lines to all #electricalcomponents!
So the diagrams aid in reading and interpreting the quantities in a circuit.
Reading an #electrical #circuitdiagram may prove to be difficult, but #HapaUjanjaTu👇

When I draw #circuitDiagram's with GNU IMP, I only use the "building blocks" in the first image for consistency (wires, chip, capacitor, (European) resistor, diode, LED, switch). There's an example in the second image. #electronics

This week I continue the haunted manuals series with a bit of a swerve into old circuit diagram appreciation.

The History of Jazz Visualized on a Circuit Diagram of a 1950s Phonograph: Features 1,000+ Musicians, Artists, Songwriters and Producers

The danger of enjoying jazz is the possibility of letting ourselves slide into the assumption that we understand it. To do so would make no more sense than believing that, say, an enjoyment of listening to records automatically transmits an understanding of record players.
