[Noisebridge-discuss] groups / classes on circuit design

[jim]

     Do you want to learn where physically to locate
various electronic components? If so, then "circuit
design" seems not what you want to learn--this has
to do essentially with making a schematic, which
shows the electron flow through components with
respect to voltage drops and component affects.
     "Component layout" may be a good search term:
this has to do with the physical location in space
that components occupy with respect mainly to
capacitive and inductive affects that components
radiate to each other.
     Below are a few search results for "printed
circuit board layout" and "electronic breadboard
layout". Does the information in these links at
least kind of address your need? (My guess is the
last one is best for you.)
