A first introduction which explains simply and clearly the essentials of modern electronics - how electronic devices and circuits work, and how they are used in computer, communications and control systems. The book looks first at the fundamental concepts and general principles of electronics. It then describes the functions of devices such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors and integrated circuits. The more complex principles of logic gates and Boolean algebra are clearly explained. Finally, the practical applications of electronics in instrumentation, control and telecommunications systems are described.
The book's lucid style and clear illustrations are ideal for those seeking a basic understanding and background knowledge of electronics today. A glossary is provided for easy reference.
