dear engineers
I only wanted to ask for some courses that explain ICs from start to end ( explained easy and full all versions) like op amps and more cause jumping from transistors to them makes it hard to grasp is you have a very good one please tell
( I kept this short cause I am in hurry)
also tell if i have to remember all of them and their working.
thanks in advance

    I don't have a video but the book "The Art of Electronics by Paul Horowitz, Winfield Hill". The three inch thick tomb will fill the gaps of all the details between the pins of an IC.

    AoE needs to be read in physical book form to truly benefit from it. Even the older 2nd edition is useful, purchased second-hand. 

    If it cannot be found in the library, then ezain just take a look at the books that are available in the library, because almost any electronics book will teach some detail about ICs, it's not necessary to pick the latest most comprehensive books.

    You could also try some online curses like this from Analog Devices:
    wiki.analog.com/.../index
    I do not remember correctly, but there should be examples of the usage of the ADALM2000 device for the practical part. Also, it is worth searching for some application notes or references. There are often good descriptions e.g. www.ti.com/.../educational-resources.html

    You can enrol for free and do the work, you only get a certificate if you pay, else you can "audit" the courses for a set time, and it's functional and feature filled.

    Hi,

    You can also buy this set of 3 books "Das Große Werkbuch Elektronik" (German (English I don't know)) and you can learn in an self-study all the basics about electronic.

    Ebay:

    https://www.ebay.de/itm/117263583779?chn=ps&norover=1&mkevt=1&mkrid=707-175437-778182-3&mkcid=2&itemid=117263583779&targetid=4583245570612672&device=c&mktype=&googleloc=251238&poi=&campaignid=590369273&mkgroupid=1274335643234925&rlsatarget=pla-4583245570612672&abcId=10409299&merchantid=87778&msclkid=0894a816a45419faac49c240cb1fc5c6

    Amazon:

    https://www.amazon.de/Das-komplette-Werkbuch-Elektronik-CD-ROMs/dp/3772365264/ref=sr_1_4?adgrpid=1156688187748450&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Ivpsq_ihXMr0QQ8CDQMJx4IxLdIBZsvRX_xaf1fb_yjmjpqqawxgJ7dNgQbtqObApCrfkIwZbsT9FKv11ZCnmVD5CrkIzaQXFAWzJF24do0K3nmYodtwzwMG4A9bhHRrzZm-q9FD1E_qXi99f-0gqxf70xRoBVaB-XvDpM0dy9TYr7mpPYqVPKDs7JxjRk6gkI-PkMKbtn1WHnbqAs5FzTTw8hDhvgw6w6s59Lmn6is.WMODQC8k9x9hncIgmeUdWhCfz-Lm6cfMn0mPIjGtRuQ&dib_tag=se&gb=2&hvadid=72293362748582&hvbmt=be&hvdev=c&hvexpln=0&hvlocphy=251238&hvnetw=o&hvocijid=12377391071038778913--&hvqmt=e&hvtargid=kwd-72293785795745%3Aloc-10&hydadcr=931_2638484&keywords=werkbuch+elektronik&mcid=897671b393483e4d83a61c992e7b4897&qid=1784050462&sr=8-4

    I purchased these books at anno 1990's. They were absolute helpful because you learn about physics, mechanics, mathematics, components, basic schematics as well as passive also active parts. Yes --- you also have to learn in a self-study and practice; "try and error" - here you can learn the mostly.

    Yes, also how works a transistor and a integrates circuits (it's just a "handful"Sunglasses, 10...10000...1 Mio., of transistors in a small package).
