So when a schematic just shows a part, like a transistor, and doesn't identify it, what am I supposed to do?
ReplyDeleteThis site has many schematics that are more 'impressionistic' -- please, a transformer here, a touch of transistor there, just a slice of op-amp if you please.
What's the trick? Why do they do that?

ReplyDeleteI suppose you're supposed to think? Do a bit of analysis?
ReplyDeleteSeriously, there are some of what you describe, but many are detailed enough to design/debug/work from. It would be nice to always have reference designators and a bill of materials, but sometimes you take what you can get - it's free after all.
Schematics have different value depending on your need - sometimes you're just looking for a topology, an idea for how to do something, or at the other end of the spectrum you're trying to clone something.
