Electronics: Circuits, Amplifiers and Gates

About This Product

Microelectronics has revolutionised technology over the last 15 years and no end is in sight to new developments. It is a tool needed by every engineer and research physicist. Yet all too often, details obscure simple principles. Electronics: Circuits, Amplifiers and Gates remedies this with a comprehensive but easy to understand account covering all the basic ideas. It is aimed at first and second year physics or electrical engineering students at universities and polytechnics. The thoroughness of the treatment provides a tremendous grounding which will lead you on to higher level applications. The textbook assumes only a knowledge of O/GCSE level physics and basic calculus. It leads you through a host of subjects including DC and AC circuits and complex numbers, operational amplifiers, digital logic, diodes, transistors, integrated circuits, filters, Fourier analysis and control systems. Illustrated throughout with a wide selection of problems and worked examples, Electronics: Circuits, Amplifiers and Gates will prove to be an essential guide in your passage through the maze of learning needed to really understand electrical systems and electronics. The Author. David Bugg has been Professor of Physics at QMW, London since 1970. He has been responsible there for the development of joint honours courses covering both Physics and Electrical Engineering, and has had wide experience also in Cambridge, Vancouver, Brisbane and the United States. He is active in research in both experimental particle physics and the application of phase-locking ideas to a variety of phenomenological problems. Read more
