Make: electronics book, Tip to read the inscription on tiny components

Make: electronics book, Tip to read the inscription on tiny components

In the last experiment, we had to use very small capacitors.

The magnifying glass was hopeless so i thought of a useful tip, take a picture of the tiny component and zoom in.

















Worked fantastic.

Also found out that capacitors sometimes don't show the value but use a code instead.

Google can be our friend in this case.
(just google "capacitor code")
