This site brings together all of the video content on the Derek Molloy YouTube channel and structures it so that you can follow the videos as lessons. It also integrates associated documentation, datasheets and tools to allow you to get the best from the video series. It also has a blog to allow me to post new videos, articles and useful information that may not be in video form.

I try to answer as many questions as possible; however, I am receiving many, many questions and queries every day, so it is becoming difficult for me to respond. Please post questions to the website and YouTube channel where it is very often the case that other readers and viewers will answer your queries.

Contact me:

You can contact me by e-mail using the form below; however, please be aware that I receive several hundred e-mail and message board requests every week and I cannot physically answer them all and continue to create new content (and perform my full-time job and mind my four children!). If at all possible, please post your question against one of the topics on this site (and feel free to answer the questions of others that I may have missed).

Also, please remember that some of the videos and blog posts are some years old and I have forgotten much of the detail in them — I have been known to watch my own videos in order to remind me of the topics. In fact, that is a large part of the reason that I started this blog — I was keeping my notes in paper notebooks, but this way they can be of use to others too…

Thanks for your understanding, Derek.
