Electrical Engineering 101
Darren Ashby is an EE turned Director, a jack of all trades master of none, and now an author thanks to spell checking. This very successful book was written by him.
Among the best books on electronics, Electrical Engineering 101 teaches the fundamental theory and practice of electronics, beginning with a response to the question "What is electricity?" It then goes on to describe the underlying ideas and components, always linking them to real-world instances. Tools and troubleshooting sections provide engineers with a deeper understanding and the know-how to construct and maintain their own electronic design projects.
Unlike other publications that simply describe electronics and provide step-by-step assembly instructions, Electrical Engineering 101 digs into how and why electricity and electronics function, providing the reader with the skills to advance their electronics education. It is written in a straightforward manner, explaining jargon, technical phrases, and schematics as they appear. The author develops a thorough understanding of the principles and demonstrates how they can be applied to a variety of engineering challenges.
This third edition offers more real-world examples and a mathematical glossary. It includes new coverage of:
- Microcontrollers
- FPGAs
- Classes of components
- Memory (RAM, ROM, etc.)
- Surface mount
- High speed design
- Board layout
- Advanced digital electronics (e.g. processors)
- Transistor circuits and circuit design
- Op-amp and logic circuits
- Use of test equipment.
