content: so what do you want ? by studying do you mean you are following a course that supplies materials or do you mean you have decided to learn yourself and need some stuff to read ?

content: so are you needing to learn the symbols use in schematics or do you mean how to understand what a circuit does ?

content: Quoteyou studying to read electrical schematics. then you need to show the electrical schematics materials you have learned from this study.draw by hand the electrical schematics. or use a schematic software tool

content: Quote from: jonovid on November 06, 2016, 09:03:08 amThe focus of my study is more to interpretation than pro drawing itself, but quelquer suggestion is valid.

content: You can only "interpret" a schematic by understanding what the symbols represent and how those parts work. Then you can break a schematic into subsections and analyse each block in isolation and then understand it's effect on the overall circuit.

content: Quote from: Kaio Macedo on November 06, 2016, 09:17:39 amYou fail to get specific. what do you personally see as advanced?What do you understand in analog electronics, what do you not understand in analog electronics.Do you understand this? Or do you not understand this?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation_amplifierGive us an example of something you do understand, and something you do not understand. And why.

content: Guys, sorry for not being specific, but the topic of the idea was to have issues of suggestions to improve the reading of the electric scheme.

content: Kaio - I think the biggest problem here is your difficulty in communicating exactly what you want.Google translate is a marvellous thing - but it is not always clear for even general conversation, let alone when the discussion starts getting technical. We understand some of what you have done and that you want to learn more - but we aren't sure exactly what you want.I know this might be difficult, but I would suggest talking to someone with better english skills, explaining what you want to say and have them write out something. If they have some electronics background, that would be very useful.

content: Quote from: Brumby on November 06, 2016, 12:07:08 pmMy wife just asked me if I had checked the OP's profile... Kaio is 14 years old, we should take this into account when helping him.@Kaio: do you know this book?http://crsouza.com/2008/07/11/the-art-of-electronics/I don't know if it has been translated into Portuguese, but I am sure that your English skills will soon be good enough to digest it. This book is a good starting point to get into electronics. The next step should be finding an electronics design tool, there are a few freeware ones. Then make your circuit, built it up on a breadboard, or make a PCB, and learn by experimenting. Of course the first thing that you need is: an idea of what you want to build.

Sorry for the topic ...About The Art of Electronics, I already have his PDF here, I'll read it as soon as I can.I am currently reading the Beginner's Guide to Reading Schematics Third Edition - Stan Gibilisco.Thank you if you can point me to more books, especially on electrical schematics.
