Description

Unlike books currently on the market, this book attempts to satisfy two goals: combine circuits and electronics into a single, unified treatment, and establish a strong connection with the contemporary world of digital systems. It will introduce a new way of looking not only at the treatment of circuits, but also at the treatment of introductory coursework in engineering in general. Using the concept of ''abstraction,'' the book attempts to form a bridge between the world of physics and the world of large computer systems. In particular, it attempts to unify electrical engineering and computer science as the art of creating and exploiting successive abstractions to manage the complexity of building useful electrical systems. Computer systems are simply one type of electrical systems.

Key Features

+Balances circuits theory with practical digital electronics applications.
+Illustrates concepts with real devices.
+Supports the popular circuits and electronics course on the MIT OpenCourse Ware from which professionals worldwide study this new approach.
+Written by two educators well known for their innovative teaching and research and their collaboration with industry.
+Focuses on contemporary MOS technology.

    Foundations of Anslog and Digital Electronic Circuits

    I choose the downloadable version. Quite easy to do with link and save as pdf. It’s a very weighty tome but clear and precise in its presentation. Most chapters are fairly short so don’t try to overload you with too much ingot. Overall a book to have and refer to at any time.

    Foundations os analog and digital electronic circuits

    This is the first book about electronic that explains the basic of circuit analyses, veru compreshive and easy to study. It analyses the principal electronic components, and it also has examples to resolve questions about circuits. Great job.
