Description
As a step-by-step guide from circuit design to finished product, this practical electronics book actually explains how to select the right tools and components for the job, use a soldering iron, etch a printed circuit board and mount the finished product in a case – and puts skills into practice through simple self-build projects. Whilst most electronics texts focus on theoretical knowledge, Keith Brindley presents a genuinely 'practical' bench guide and reference for electronics experimenters. The straightforward, interactive style of this book makes it ideal for home electronics work and particularly suitable as an introduction to university lab courses for students who are not familiar with hands-on electronics construction. The book also lends itself as a self-contained resource for secondary school and vocational course classroom projects.

Audience:
Hobby electronics, UK secondary school electronics and technology / High School, Further Education / Vocational, Undergraduates tackling construction projects for the first time, Technicians, Electronics servicing students and practitioners, other craftspeople who need to know the basics of electronics construction, e.g. intruder alarm installers.
