Product Description

Review

"Listed as noteworthy book by Bill Schweber from EDN Magazine. This broad-ranging book teaches considerations you wish you knew about when you finished school and had a real project to work on but doesn't assume a simplistic problem-solution approach." - EDN Feb 2005

Product Description

Tim Williams' Circuit Designer's Companion provides a unique masterclass in practical electronic design that draws on his considerable experience as a consultant and design engineer. As well as introducing key areas of design with insider's knowledge, Tim focuses on the art of designing circuits so that every production model will perform its specified function - and no other unwanted function - reliably over its lifetime.

The combination of design alchemy and awareness of commercial and manufacturing factors makes this an essential companion for the professional electronics designer. Topics covered include analog and digital circuits, component types, power supplies and printed circuit board design.

The second edition includes new material on microcontrollers, surface mount processes, power semiconductors and interfaces, bringing this classic work up to date for a new generation of designers.

· A unique masterclass in the design of optimized, reliable electronic circuits
· Beyond the lab - a guide to electronic design for production, where cost-effective design is imperative
· Tips and know-how provide a whole education for the novice, with something to offer the most seasoned professional

5.0 out of 5 stars Should be on every electronic designer's bookshelf, 11 Nov 2008
By 
Mr. R. Willis (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Circuit Designer's Companion (EDN Series for Design Engineers) (Paperback)
When it comes to translating a paper design into a physical circuit you need this book. It addresses all the practical problems that you may come across and many that you had not thought about. All the things that you were never told about at college but prevent you making reliable, repeatable circuits are here.

An excellent book that every electronic engineer or student should have on his bookshelf and constantly refer to.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best....!!!!, 26 Mar 2008
This review is from: The Circuit Designer's Companion (EDN Series for Design Engineers) (Paperback)
Tim Williams is without doubt one of the best authors I have read on the subject of electronics. I use this book regularly for its depth of explanation, clarity, good diagramming and its focus on practical aspects of circuit design. This book as an accompaniment to Art of Electronics is the perfect combination for any electronics enthusiast. An excellent piece of work...!!!
