Summary

Developed to address the fundamentals in reduced time, this unique book provides complete and concise coverage of the fundamentals of electronics without redundant examples and the equation derivations that take up so much space in traditional books.With an emphasis on component and circuit operation, analysis, applications, and testing, this book thoroughly explores the foundation of DC circuits, AC circuits, discrete electronic devices and op-amps in a narrative that readers can understand. Revamped with a new four-color illustration and photo design, the Second Edition offers an updated pedagogical package that includes chapter opening vignettes, new margin notes, and component testing and applications discussions.For electrical engineers.
