Electronic Circuits is a unique
combination of a comprehensive reference text and a practical electronics
handbook in one volume.
Mike Tooley provides all the essential
information required to get to grips with the fundamentals of electronics,
detailing the underpinning knowledge necessary to appreciate the operation of a
wide range of electronic circuits, including amplifiers, logic circuits, power
supplies and oscillators.
The third edition now offers an even more
extensive range of topics, with extended coverage of practical areas such as
circuit construction and fault finding, and new topics including circuit
simulation, electronic CAD and a brand new chapter devoted to the PIC
microcontroller.
A new companion website at
http://www.key2electronics.com offers the reader a set of spreadsheet design
tools that can be used to simplify circuit calculations, as well as circuit
models and templates that will enable virtual simulation of circuits in the
book.
These are accompanied by on-line self-test MCQs
per chapter with automatic marking, to enable students to continually monitor
their own progress and understanding.
The book's content is matched to the latest
pre-degree level courses (from Level 2 up to, and including, Foundation Degree
and HND), making this an invaluable reference text for all study levels, and its
broad coverage is combined with practical case studies, based in real-world
engineering contexts throughout the text.
The unique combination of a comprehensive
reference text, incorporating a primary focus on practical application, ensures
this text will prove a vital guide for students and also for industry-based
engineers, who are either new to the field of electronics, or who wish to
refresh their knowledge.
Yet unlike general electronics reference texts
available, Electronic Circuits offers this essential information
at an affordable price.
Audience
Any reader new to the field of electronics, following vocational courses from
Level 2 up to, and including, Foundation Degree and HND. Technicians and
engineers in industry, working with electronics for the first time. Electronics
enthusiasts.
