Description
The formal education of an electrical engineer is primarily mathematics and theory, with little practical information taught. Every beginning engineer needs a mentor to teach them the things that aren't taught in engineering school, but often lacks such a guide. This book fills that gap between theory and practice. Written by an expert electronics engineer who enjoys teaching the practical side of engineering, it covers all the subjects that a beginning EE needs to know: intuitive circuit and signal analysis, physical equivalents of electrical components, proper use of an oscilloscope, troubleshooting both digital and analog circuits, and much more. The accompanying CD-ROM contains a reference library of electronics information, with demo simulation software and engineering calculators.

Audience
Engineering students and beginning engineers. Experienced engineers needing a refresher; engineers from other disciplines needing a practical introduction to EE principles.

Contents
Unit math; Physical equivalents of electrical components; Intuitive signal analysis; Building blocks; Ohms law; Semiconductors; Op-amps; Microprocessor basics; Motors and controls; Magnets; Basic EMI; Essential engineering tools and when to use them; Rules of thumb when working with other engineers; Communication tools.
