Elysian Shadows

To sum up my dilemma: my digital electronics teacher expects us to know the basics of circuitry. Things like Ohm's law, finding the resistance total, laws of circuit theory and Kirchhoff's Current Law, just to name a few. He sped through the powerpoint and whenever I asked for help, he would just point back to the slide; in which I had no idea what was going on.

So do you guys know of a good website where I can learn this stuff?

All help is greatly appreciated.

Okay, quick question...

Why in FUCK'S NAME does a DIGITAL CIRCUITRY class expect you to know the basics of ANALOG circuitry? In our engineering course of study, analog comes long after digital. The mathematics governing digital logic is extremely simple. The mathematics governing analog circuitry is FUCKING complex (calculus, differential equations), and requires an intense background in circuit analysis techniques (mesh current, node voltage, thevenin/norton equivalent circuits, etc.)

I would be pissed.

Agreed.

pussy (jk).

In all seriousness though, isn't things like Ohm's law covered in high school physics?

@M_D_K
Well, in my high school physics is separate from the required science courses. We can take it as an elective.

Yeah, the guy teaching this stuff really sucks at it. For example, someone asked him a question about the quiz we took today, and he responded with "I guess that's it". That crap REALLY makes me want to drop the course for some other class and learn how to do digital circuitry on my own.
