During the Electronics for Non-Electronic Engineers course, you will learn to recognise electronic components, including their characteristics and potential fault situations. You will also be introduced to topics such as electronic systems, connectivity, and measurement.
- Gain practical electronics knowledge
- Learn to apply electronics with around 30 demonstration setups
- Participate in various practical sessions including measurement, simulation software, and smart electronics
About the course Electronics for non-electronics professionals
Are you working in the field of technology and occasionally deal with electronics but lack the basic knowledge to dive right in? Then the six-day course "Electronics for Non-Electronic Engineers" will get you started. Through various practical exercises, you will learn to read and interpret schematics, recognise and troubleshoot common defects, handle ESD responsibly, perform measurements, and work safely. Utilise the digital learning platform to review additional interactive information at home.
Upon completion of this basic electronics course, you will be familiar with electronic fundamentals and industry-specific terminology. You will also learn to identify electronic components, their characteristics, and potential fault situations. Gain insight into the general operation and application of common interfaces and understand safety regulations. Additionally, you will develop the following skills:
- Reading and interpreting schematics on a printed circuit board (PCB) or assembled system
- Recognising and resolving common defects
- Performing simple, targeted measurements for effective troubleshooting
- Handling SMART electronics through Arduino practical sessions
- Simulating electronic circuits using SPICE-based software
- Handling electronic components with quality in mind regarding ESD and assembly guidelines
- Working safely with electronics
Program

- Passive, active, and electromechanical components Integrated circuits
- ADC and DAC
- Linear power supplies
- Switching power supplies and amplifiers
- Processor, microcontroller, and programmable logic
- Communication interfaces
- System architecture
- Embedded SMART electronics
- Production techniques and soldering
- Cables and connectors Fault finding
- Visual inspections
- Simulation
- Measurements using a multimeter
- Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
- Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
- Safety
Discover the possibilities to organize this course incompany
If you want to train several employees in your company, it is more interesting and cheaper to organize a course at your location. Good coordination to your company-specific situation and the deployment of highly experienced teachers who have earned their spurs in practice are essential in this regard. Mikrocentrum is CEDEO accredited and guarantees the best quality.
