About / Public Description
A subreddit for practical questions about component-level electronic circuits: design, repair, component buying, test gear and tools.
Rules
Questions must be on-topic.
Posts must be clear questions about practical, component-level electronics (including circuit design, troubleshooting/repair, component use or identification, sourcing, and relevant tools and equipment). Do not ask about the general use or setup of consumer electronics, computers, or pre-assembled modules. Questions about electrical systems (e.g., mains wiring, household installations) belong in r/askelectricians or r/led (lighting).
The title must ask the actual question clearly & concisely
Your submission title must clearly & concisely summarise the question or problem. This helps others quickly understand your issue & improves searchability for future users. Avoid vague or non-descriptive titles (e.g. “Help needed” or “What is wrong here?”). Instead, briefly state the core issue and relevant context where possible. Posts with unclear or low-effort titles, or titles in ALL CAPS, may be removed at moderator discretion, & you may be asked to resubmit with a more appropriate title.
Comments must be civil and helpful.
Please engage with others in a civil manner. If someone is rude or hostile, please click the report link under it, or let the mods know -- they will take appropriate action, which may include a ban on the offending account.
No commercial, self-promotion content
Do not post advertisement, commercial offers, giveaways, requests to have something valued, spam, or self-promotions. Do not conduct trade in this subreddit. This sub abides by the [Reddit Rules on self-promotion](https://old.reddit.com/wiki/selfpromotion).
Safety must be the primary goal
Posts or comments that imply or encourage an unsafe situation or action will be removed. DIY repair questions about microwave ovens will be deleted.
Diagnosis by Photo
Posts requesting help must include basic diagnostic information. Submissions comprising photos (or images of a device, circuit, or error state) without any explanation of the issue, measurements, or troubleshooting steps may be removed. At minimum, posts should include: * A clear description of the problem * What the device or circuit is supposed to do vs what is happening * Any basic diagnostics already performed (e.g. voltage checks, continuity tests, component swaps, logs, or observations
No low-effort, unverified, or AI-generated answers
Do not post low-effort or unverified answers, including copy-pasted content from AI tools or other sources. Responses must reflect your own understanding and, where appropriate, include reasoning, calculations, or references. If someone wants an AI-generated answer, they can obtain one themselves; this subreddit is for informed, human explanations.

NSFW content not tagged/spoilered
Posting gory or gruesome pictures/videos is totally fine. However, all posts like this MUST have the NSFW AND Spoiler tag. This is a hard requirement. We are an adult community but some adults are squeamish.

No market research / surveys. The data gathered from these posts is almost always used to promote/sell a product or service, sold to third parties, or used to train LLMs. Even if you claim or think your survey is exempt from this rule because you're not selling anything, it is in fact not exempt.

如何变成每周工作流
按机器人类型、工作环境、软件栈、传感器、执行器和部署阶段给帖子打标签。
把原型演示与可靠性、安全、维护和量产证据分开阅读。
把重复出现的集成问题转成文档、示例、兼容性说明和支持内容。
发帖前检查项目展示、招聘、推广、学术问卷和新手问题规则。
常见问题
机器人产品团队应该从哪里开始？
用 r/robotics 观察综合项目和行业信号，用 r/ros 研究 Robot Operating System 工具链，再到自动化或机电一体化社区看部署细节。
哪些社区适合硬件和零部件团队？
阅读机器人、机电一体化、嵌入式、电子、传感器、执行器和构建者讨论，再按零部件实际支持的环境与接口筛选。
机器人创业公司可以分享演示吗？
先核对社区规则。合适的帖子应披露身份，给出工程细节、限制和可复现语境，而不是只发产品发布文案。
