Basics of electronic circuits and components - theory & hands-on

What is the start time?

No prior knowledge or experience required.

Preliminary plan:

 A very quick intro/recap on basics (basically secondary school physics, but from a more practical angle)
   Voltage, current and power
   AC and DC
   Resistance, capacitance, inductance
   Ohm's and Kirchhoff's laws
 Electrical safety
 Analog vs Digital
 Circuits in practice
   Hard-wired and wire-wrapped circuits
   Printed circuit boards
   SMD (surface-mount devices)
   Soldering
 Passive components
   Resistors
   Capacitors
   Inductors
   Transformers
 Active components
   Semiconductors
   Diodes (normal, zener)
   Transistors (PNP, NPN, FET, Thyristors)
   Optoelectronics
   Valves
   Integrated circuits
 Basic circuits
   Power supplies
   Amplifiers
   Logic circuits
