The Art of Electronics (3rd Edition)

  • BrandCambridge University Press

Description

At long last, here is the thoroughly revised and updated third edition of the hugely successful The Art of Electronics. It is widely accepted as the best single authoritative book on electronic circuit design.

In addition to new or enhanced coverage of many topics, the third edition includes 90 oscilloscope screenshots illustrating the behavior of working circuits, dozens of graphs giving highly useful measured data of the sort that is often buried or omitted in datasheets but which you need when designing circuits, and 80 tables (listing some 1650 active components), enabling intelligent choice of circuit components by listing essential characteristics (both specified and measured) of available parts.

The new Art of Electronics retains the feeling of informality and easy access that helped make the earlier editions so successful and popular. It is an indispensable reference and the gold standard for anyone, student or researcher, professional or amateur, who works with electronic circuits.

  • Over 450,000 copies sold of first and second editions
  • The leading practical guide to circuit design
  • Fully up to date and packed with valuable advice

About the authors

Paul Horowitz is a Research Professor of Physics and of Electrical Engineering at Harvard University, where in 1974 he originated the Laboratory Electronics course from which emerged The Art of Electronics. In addition to his work in circuit design and electronic instrumentation, his research interests have included observational astrophysics, x-ray and particle microscopy, and optical interferometry. He is one of the pioneers of the search for intelligent life beyond Earth (SETI). He is the author of some 200 scientific articles and reports, has consulted widely for industry and government, and is the designer of numerous scientific and photographic instruments.

Winfield Hill is by inclination an electronics circuit-design guru. After dropping out of the Chemical Physics graduate program at Harvard University, and obtaining an EE degree, he began his engineering career at Harvard’s Electronics Design Center. After 7 years of learning electronics at Harvard he founded Sea Data Corporation, where he spent 16 years designing instruments for Physical Oceanography. In 1988 he was recruited by Edwin Land to join the Rowland Institute for Science. The institute subsequently merged with Harvard University in 2003. As director of the institute’s Electronics Engineering Lab he has designed some 500 scientific instruments. Recent interests include high-voltage RF (to 15kV), high-current pulsed electronics (to 1200A), low-noise amplifiers (to sub-nV and pA), and MOSFET pulse generators.

    Sehr empfehlenswert

    Habe das Buch seit 1986 ($ 34.--!!) und es ist immer noch vielfach in Gebrauch. Sehr empfehlenswert als Grundlage da unkompliziert und witzig geschrieben und leicht verständlich ohne viel Formelüberbau.

    Was soll man sagen: die Bibel der Elektronik.

    Muss man haben, neben anderen Standardwerken wie Halbleiterschaltubgstechnik.
    Gut beschrieben, vernünftig bebildert und mit allen möglichen Tipps und Tricks.
    Das Buch kam bei mir mit leichten Beschädigungen an und das Papier finde ich recht dünn. Daher die Abzüge.
