More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
This text provides a variety of circuits to be designed on screen, tested and modified before being committed to a PCB layout. The book offers modules to be attempted using the accompanying CD-ROM, which lets the student or beginner carry out projects or "invent" a complete circuit. Using the files, modifications can be made, or values altered. Each section of the text covers a particular area: simple transistor circuits are discussed, followed by modules based around op-amps; a section on logic gates includes monostable/bistabel/astable multivibrators; and special ICs are also covered (including the NE555). In conclusion, the transfer from circuit diagram to a layout on PCB or stripboard is explained, with examples of each.
From the Author
Includes a free CD-ROM
Includes a free CD-ROM which enables you to try Electronics Workbench and create and run any of the circuits in the book and any other circuits you wish to test. The CD-ROM also includes 15 representative circuits from the book. If you already have a copy of Electronics Workbench Version 5, you can load any of the circuits shown in the book, plus a full set of Answers to Questions. The circuits and projects in the book range from 'bulbs & batteries' to complex systems such as bass and treble tone control circuits. The projects will appeal to all, including students and teachers, and anybody who wishes to design projects quickly and easily.

A comprehensive beginners guide
4 Dec 1999
Format:Paperback
A comprehensive beginners guide, but not only that but a book able to help some of the more experienced. It teaches you how to simulate both a circuit as a whole or a circuit broken up into modules to test their practical capability. It does not bother to paraphrase what is already in the manual but takes the reader into the realms of circuit design. Consequently I have found this book worth its weight in gold, as it has saved me many hard hours work and I have had the great pleasure of being able to toy with new ideas effortlessly.

Well writen, easy to use, maximum value
24 May 1999
Format:Paperback
Possibly the best electronics book I've read recently. Simple to understand, even for the least experiencied student. Free CD-ROM is excellent and makes the book come alive.

Don't buy this book
3 Dec 1999
Format:Paperback
This book is NOT about using the simulator program Electronics Workbench. It is a rehash of some old magazine articles about electronics, written at the hobbyist level or lower. It has NO useful information about the software. If you already know ohms law and want to learn Electronics Workbench forget this book.
