The drawings are by Tom Hayes; he makes similar drawings all the time in lecture. If you don't know a lot about electronics and want to learn more (and live in the boston area) I highly recommmend PHYS-123 at the Harvard Extension School. Tom Hayes teaches this class; it's two semesters, the first is analog and the second digital. Plenty of contruction in a well-equiped lab, and Tom is a great instructor. The emphasis is very strongly on building simple stuff that WORKS. -- Jerry Callen jcallen@encore.com
