Mechanical engineering design
Fundamental electronics for your mechanical design
Although we tend to classify engineers into different specialisations (such as mechanical, electrical, civil, etc), the reality is that there are very few mechanical projects these days which don't include any electronics.
Your device will need to use electronic software and hardware for its operation. In these two videos, Michael talks about the best types to use, and how to make the most of them.
You can find more information on electronics for your device in the Your Project lecture series, in the videos on Electronics Software and Hardware.
