Newbie level 3
Hi
I'm skilled computer programmer in advanced programming skills in C/C++, Assembly, Delphi, .NET (C#, VB.NET), Python, Perl, PHP and even kernel programming for windows and linux. In a word, I'm so good in computer sciences.
I know a little about math and calculus, I just studied math in high school, like Integral, Functions, etc. calculations... Algebra, Geometry, etc. Not further.
Also I have created some boards and programmed some applications using AVR microcontrollers and my boards working properly, the boards was for some USB data transfer and some other operations, like simulating real keyboard and mouse. I created them on breadboard and I programmed AVR part myself. But board design for USB etc. was ready, I found them on internet and I just placed correct pieces in correct locations. Also I created a simple AVR programmer again on breadboard.
For you Savy Electronic experts, all of the above is nothing. Please explain to me, could I learn electronics and PCB designs by reading books or I should go and study it in University? I studied Software Engineering and I raised it to high levels and I'm now so good in Software, I like to learn PCB designing and electronics.
Should I study it in University or in a class or could I learn it myself? Is there self-taught PCB designer and electronics savies?
If yes, please point me some A B C D E F G books or web sites for electronics and PCB designs which I can understand and could teach to me electronics and PCB design in easy words. I tried to study some books, but they was hard enough for me.
Thanks for reading my newbie question
