This book is an undergraduate textbook for students of electrical and electronic engineering. It is written with second year students particularly in mind, and discusses analogue circuits used in various fields.

Unlike books currently on the market, this book attempts to satisfy two goals: combine circuits and electronics into a single, unified treatment, and establish a strong connection with the contemporary world of digital systems. It will introduce a new way of looking not only at the treatment of circuits, but also at the treatment of introductory coursework in engineering in general. Using the concept of ''abstraction,'' the book attempts to form a bridge between the world of physics and the world of large computer systems. In particular, it attempts to unify electrical engineering and computer science as the art of creating and exploiting successive abstractions to manage the complexity of building useful electrical systems. Computer systems are simply one type of electrical systems.+Balances circuits theory with practical digital electronics applications.+Illustrates concepts with real devices.+Supports the popular circuits and electronics course on the MIT OpenCourse Ware from which professionals worldwide study this new approach.+Written by two educators well known for their innovative teaching and research and their collaboration with industry.+Focuses on contemporary MOS technology.

This comprehensive electronics text designed for electronics technology majors provides a real-world orientation for future working technicians. Numerous carefully designed drawings and photos are included throughout to insure that each concept is fully understood. Includes the latest analog integrated circuits. Digital Applications show students the importance of digital in the analog world. All discussions are interrelated by common theme of feedback. Specially designed transistor circuit analysis flow charts simplify basic transistor concepts. Manageable for one semester. Accompanied by superior lab and instructor's manuals and a unique Student Survival Guide for Analog Electronics by the text author.ALSO AVAILABLELaboratory Manual, ISBN:0-314-04677-1 INSTRUCTOR SUPPLEMENTS CALL CUSTOMER SUPPORT TO ORDERInstructor's Guide, ISBN: 0-314-05522-3Transparency Masters, ISBN: 0-314-04925-8(Keywords: Electronic Devices)

The content has been carefully designed to meet the requirements of first and second year students of electronic engineering, communications engineering and telecommunications, following full honours degree programs or two-year courses including HNC/HND. - A completely new analog electronics textbook for the digital age - Coverage ideal for courses with a communications / wireless focus

This book introduces the basic mathematical tools used to describe noise and its propagation through linear systems and provides a basic description of the improvement of signal-to-noise ratio by signal averaging and linear filtering. The text also demonstrates how op amps are the keystone of modern analog signal conditioning systems design, and il

This book introduces the foundations and fundamentals of electronic circuits. It broadly covers the subjects of circuit analysis, as well as analog and digital electronics. It features discussion of essential theorems required for simplifying complex circuits and illustrates their applications under different conditions. Also, in view of the emerging potential of Laplace transform method for solving electrical networks, a full chapter is devoted to the topic in the book. In addition, it covers the physics and technical aspects of semiconductor diodes and transistors, as well as discrete-time digital signals, logic gates, and combinational logic circuits. Each chapter is presented as complete as possible, without the reader having to refer to any other book or supplementary material. Featuring short self-assessment questions distributed throughout, along with a large number of solved examples, supporting illustrations, and chapter-end problems and solutions, this book is ideal for any physics undergraduate lecture course on electronic circuits. Its use of clear language and many real-world examples make it an especially accessible book for students unfamiliar or unsure about the subject matter.

A reference volume of analog electronic circuits based on the op-amp, containing practical detail and technical advice.
