Reviews

[Niall Delahan · Rating 5 out of 5]

Kevin is highly talented not only in the field of electronics but also understanding the percpective of a student. It is common for experts to forget the important foundational information as it becomes second nature, but not here.
Thanks Kevin and everyone involved for this great resource.
