I've struggled to find a proper introductory guide to stuff like this. Moving from pre-made Adafruit boards to my own PCBs was very tough to navigate; every guide I came across assumed you knew all sorts of stuff that the EEs writing them probably committed to deep memory decades earlier.

I found Phil's lab content [1] [2] indispensable for just this. Phil is a great communicator and gives in-depth explanations, so I didn't just watch most of his youtube, but also bought his mixed signals course and was very happy with it.

Phil also recommends this lecture in one of his videos [3], which is still one of my all time favourite lectures ever.

Fantastic stuff, esp. #3 which I had not seen before. Thank you.
