		<title>Programming the 3x3x3 RGB LED Cube</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So you have a 3x3x3 RGB LED Cube and you are board of the built in patterns. Now you want to try your hand at making your own patterns but you&#8217;re not quite sure where to start. You&#8217;ve come to the right place. In this tutorial I will explain how the demo code works and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Transistors</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The next step into semiconductors, the transistor. Chances are you have heard of the transistor before. They are one of the more widely used components, a computer has massive amounts of them. So what is a transistor? A transistor is an electrical switch. By using a small amount of power you can control a larger [...]]]></description>

		<title>Diodes</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Diodes are the most basic semiconductor. A diode simply allows electricity to flow only one way. They allow current to flow through them when the side marked with a + in the picture below has a higher voltage then the side marked with a -. A diode can be thought of as a check valve, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Inductors</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The inductor tutorial! So you want to know what an inductor is? An inductor is a coil of wire, normally around a ferrous, magnetic, core. They come in all shapes and sizes, but the most common ones are called toroids. Toroids consist of a ferrous ring with a hold in the center where wire is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Capacitors</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So you still want to learn more, well you are about to learn about the capacitor! I have to warn you, capacitors are more complicated then resistors, but you&#8217;ll be fine. Enough talk, what is a capacitor? A capacitor is a part that stores electrostatic energy. OK&#8230; what does that mean? Capacitors store an electrical [...]]]></description>

		<title>Resistors</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Resistors, one of the most common and simple parts used in electronics. So, what is a resistor? Why are they so useful? A resistor is anything that resists the flow of electricity. Now that is pretty broad isn&#8217;t it. Pretty much everything resists the flow of electricity, except for super conductors, however &#8220;resistor&#8221; generally applies [...]]]></description>

		<title>Beginning Electronics, the Basics</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This tutorial will be your first step into the world of electronics. Here I will tell you about the three units that are commonly used when talking about electricity. You should have a good understanding of these, it will help you later. Now I know this can be hard. It took me about a year [...]]]></description>
