The
Art of Electronics
Paul Horowitz, Winfield Hill
Concidered by many to be the Bibleof Electronics, this is
the thoroughly revised and updated second edition of the hugely
successful The Art of Electronics. Widely accepted as the
single authoritative text and reference on electronic circuit
design, both analog and digital, the original edition sold
over 125,000 copies world-wide and was translated into eight
languages. The book revolutionised the teaching of electronics
by emphasising the methods actually used by circuit designers
- a combination of some basic laws, rules to thumb, and a
large non-mathematical treatment that encourages circuit values
and performance. The new Art of Electronics retains the feeling
of informality and easy access that helped make the first
edition so successful and popular. It is an ideal first textbook
on electronics for scientists and engineers and an indispensable
reference for anyone, professional or amateur, who works with
electronic circuits

Making
Printed Circuit Boards
Janet Louise Axelson
Synopsis
Almost everyone who builds or experiments with electronic
circuits develops an interest in making printed circuit boards.
Devices built on pc boards are small, lightweight, simple
to troubleshoot and repair, and easy to duplicate - qualities
that professionals and hobbyists alike can appreciate. This
is a learn-by-example guide for entry-level technicians, students,
and experimenters who want to learn how to build their own
high-quality pc boards. Janet Axelson takes readers step by
step from schematic diagram to finished project, demonstrating
how to draw circuit designs, transfer artwork to pc blanks,
etch copper patterns, drill lead holes, solder components,
and repair and modify boards. Some of the topics addressed
include how to use computers and photography to design circuits,
how to make double-sided boards, how to choose and use photo-resists,
and how to safely handle and dispose of etching chemicals.
Axelson carefully selects her methods throughout to ensure
simplicity, low cost, and speedy construction.

Bebop
to the Boolean Boogie :
An Unconventional Guide to Electronics Fundamentals, Components,
and Processes
Clive Maxfield
Despite a light-hearted title and an off-beat attitude throughout,
this is a technical book, arranged in two sections, the first
on fundamental electronics concepts and the second on components
and processes. Coverage includes the difference between the
analog and digital worlds; primitive logic fun
The author, Clive , 8 July, 1997
Musical socks, Virtual Logic, ... Nanotechnology
Bebop to the Boolean Boogie rampages through digital electronics,
starting with "What is an atom?" and ending with
virtual logic, holographic optical interconnects, and nanotechnology.
Along the way we also discover the secrets behind those musical
socks that your aunts give you for Christmas that play an
immediately annoying tune when you squeeze them -- the socks,
not the aunts).
The first half of the book introduces fundamental concepts,
while the second half considers the way in which components
are made, including integrated circuits, hybrids, multi-chip
modules, programmable logic and memory devices, and circuit
boards.
We close with an introduction to a smorgasbord of alternative
and future technologies, followed by a wealth of appendices
(including a recipe for seafood gumbo) and a huge glossary
and index.
Bebop is for anyone who is interested in learning more about
electronics, from absolute beginners to experienced engineers.

The
Forrest Mims Circuit Scrapbook
Forrest M. Mims, Forrest Mims
Describes circuits for analog computers, voltage-to-frequency
converters, LED displays, power sources, digital phase-locked
loops, and optical fibre communications. --This text refers
to the Paperback edition
Using commonly available components and remarkable ingenuity,
these comprehensive volumes teach how to build and experiment
with a large array of circuit types. Volume I demonstrates
how to construct opto-electronic circuits, digital PLLs, voltage
converters, and timers. Volume II shows how to assemble audio
synthesisers, laser diode devices, power supplies, and radio
control systems. Clear, succinct directions are provided for
each of these circuits, as are hand-drawn schematics, detailed
theories of operation, construction hints, and other useful
information. Designers, experimenters, educators, and technicians
will appreciate the well-organised, accurate, and concise
information in each volume. These books also supply information
about the basics of circuit layout and construction, where
to locate parts, and troubleshooting a circuit design.
