Curious about circuits?
Whether you're looking to repair devices, start building your own hobby electronics project or use microcontrollers such as Arduino to bring code to hardware, our Maker Basics: Soldering & Electronics session will give you the hands-on foundation you need to get started.
In just two hours, you can explore the following topics according to interest:
- How to solder confidently, using through-hole and/or surface-mount techniques
- An overview of electronic components and their usage
- How to use common electronics equipment such as a multimeter, breadboard and bench power supply
- An introduction to microcontrollers and mini-computers (Arduino, ESP32, Raspberry Pi Pico or Raspberry Pi 5)
⚠️ This workshop focuses on basic tools and techniques. The point is to get your hands on the tools so you can come back and use the workshop on your own. You will not complete your own project in this workshop.
⚠️ Please note that some of the machinery in the FabLab may be dangerous, and all participants are required to sign a liability waiver before attending.
About FabLab Neukölln
The FabLab Neukölln is a collaboration powered by 42berlin and workish.berlin. It’s a maker space, creative workshop, and hardware lab, right here in Neukölln.
The 150sqm FabLab is split into two. A dirt lab with woodworking and metal working equipment, perfect for making dust and loud noises. Across the hall, you’ll find a clean lab equipped with a 3D printer, laser cutter, and textile lab where your electronics or more delicate projects can come to life.
Our space was created to provide fair access to equipment, training, and community for students, experienced makers, and garage inventors alike. What will you come up with? Apply for the next onboarding session.
