Doing the digital circuit design is much more challenging to me comparing to the mechanical and structural design projects. Having to deal with circuits and how it works involves a whole new different level of knowledge in physics. Learning all the different terms and the functions of electronics and circuits is still very difficult to me since I was never good at circuits or anything to do with electricity. And compare to other peers in the class, I am very clueless and inexperienced. It was also hard for me to understand the concepts, the way charges flow and how different pins in the 555 timer chip work. Compare to the mechanical projects, these concepts for me are more imaginary-based because you don't see the charges or electricity, and I have never dealt with any projects circuits related before, whereas the challenges for mechanical projects lie in designing, modeling, and putting together the structure that one can realistically visualize. Although it is a good learning experience, It was not an easy task to absorb all these skills and knowledge in such a short amount of time. On the other hand, I think the most challenging aspect of building my digital circuits is understanding the whole process since I have never done anything close to what it entails before, and also how to apply what I have on paper to the actual building process, and how to properly build a circuit without making mistakes. These all require a lot of learning and I hope I can make it to the end.
