Description All the design and development inspiration and direction an electronics engineer needs in one blockbuster book! John Donovan, Editor-in
Chief, Portable Design has selected the very best electronic design material from the Newnes portfolio and has compiled it into this
volume. The result is a book covering the gamut of electronic design from design fundamentals to low-power approaches with a strong pragmatic
emphasis. In addition to specific design techniques and practices, this book also discusses various approaches to solving electronic
design problems and how to successfully apply theory to actual design tasks. The material has been selected for its timelessness as well
as for its relevance to contemporary electronic design issues.
