Electronic Symbols Template

Computer engineering and EE students, you need one of these. It takes you an eighth of the time to draw a recognizable gate, it's perfect, and you don't even have to try. Buy one or two fewer beers this weekend (this isn't exactly cheap) and invest in this quality instrument which will improve your life significantly. On those tests that are intentionally too long to complete in the allotted time, these give you one heck of an edge and your work is clear and neat. You will walk as a god among mortals with this template, pumping out professional-quality work by hand without even putting forth significant effort. Look with pity among the fools that did not heed this wisdom as they struggle to make their hastily-drawn AND gates not look like terribly-drawn ORs, with askew and disproportionate lines, as you crap out beautiful work just by slapping down this template and just by wildly flailing a mechanical pencil around the perimeter of the symbol! Finish in half the time with perfect work, and bask in the glory of your own awesome decision to buy one of these. I had two of these, and for your Digital Logic classes "you can't go no better".

Flexible and easy to use. Delivered on time and in good condition. No disappointing surprises. Good variety of symbols. Price was reasonable.

The template is very nice, but the one I have sticks to any type of paper, because it has a constant static charge. If you turn it over it is ok, but then you are unable to read the template . I would not recommend anyone purchasing this item.

I too really enjoy the amount of symbols for drawing my own schematics, but as far as "heavy... quite durable", I would have to disagree. It is flexible but from my experience (I bought two) is somewhat delicate -- The 1st one broke as I was removing the plastic (just a break on the side though so not a deal breaker). I am going to try the Rapidesign Electro Logic Template (http://www.amazon.com/Rapidesign-Electro-Logic-Template/dp/B004IUPG2U/ref=pd_rhf_cr_p_t_2) next and hope it is a little thicker plastic to hold up to the wear and tear of a student's backpack.

For the few stalwarts who still enjoy drawing out a schematic by hand--this is a find template. Made of heavy, but flexible plastic--it is quite durable. Includes outlines for the following: antennas, JFETs, MOSFETs, bipolar transistors, diodes, R, L, C, transformers, lamps, switches, batteries, crystals, speakers, microphones, pickup heads, op amps, logic gates (AND/OR/NAND/NOR/buffer/inverter).

Symbol templates are getting harder to find now that everything is digital. This template is made of thicker plastic than many other brands (I've have a few). All the major parts are present. I found the dimensions are a bit too large for my taste. The opamp and resistor templates could be about 1/3 smaller.

Has a lot of useful stuff.

You have to use a mechanical pencil because the slots are to small to get anything else in the slots
