Not at all. Not, not, not at all.
To write about Ford cars, do I have to be a mechanical engineer? Can I
be a Chevy mechanical engineer, or must I be Ford-only? Can I be an
ASE-certified mechanic, instead?
To write about software, must I be a programmer? To write about software
used by engineers, must I be a programmer and an engineer? If that
software is used on a Windows XP network, must I also be a
Microsoft-certified XP administrator?

Why do you think the idea of having an AA in electronics for a technical
writer to be hilarious? If the job is to write about electronics, its a
necessity.
