Reference pages
I ask my students to create a personalized fact page (what used to be called a cheat sheet but since it’s not cheating I prefer a different name) of facts that they use repeatedly but haven’t yet memorized. As an example, and for the same reason, here is my fact sheet:
- Pinout for the T-Pro SG90 hobby servo motor
- The wire colors are: Red = Battery, Brown = Battery(-), and Orange = Signal
- Data sheets I often need
- Transistors
- Integrated Circuits
- Misc
- Omron relay g5v1
- T Pro SG90 hobby servo
- Brown = Ground
- Orange = +ve
- Yellow = Signal
- Arduino
- Arduino schematics
Popular shield schematics
- Adafruit’s Motor/Stepper/Servo shield
- Robot Power’s high power MegaMotor shield (up to 30A at 28V!)
- Arduino schematics
- Capacitor markings
- European schematic symbols, especially polarized
