Die heutige Regelungstechnik hat Verknüpfungspunkte mit fast jedem technischen Gebiet. Ihre Anwendungen reichen von der Elektrotechnik über die Antriebstechnik und den Maschinenbau bis hin zur Verfahrenstechnik. Will man nun die Regelungstechnik anhand der fachlichen Regeln dieser einzelnen Gebiete erklären, so müsste man von einem Regelungstechniker verlangen, jedes Fachgebiet, in dem er Regelungen vornehmen will, fundiert zu beherrschen. Dies ist aber bei dem heutigen Stand der Technik nicht möglich. Bei der Regelung einer Antriebsaufgabe, einer Druck- oder einer Temperaturregelung tauchen Gemeinsamkeiten auf, die man mit einer einheitlichen Vorgehensweise beschreiben kann. Die Grundgesetze der Regelungstechnik gelten in gleicher Weise für alle Regelkreise, ganz unabhängig davon, wie verschieden sie im Einzelnen auch apparativ aufgebaut sein mögen. Dieses Buch richtet sich an den Praktiker, der gründlicher in die Regelungstechnik eindringen möchte, auf ausschweifende theoretische Exkursionen in die Mathematik aber gerne verzichten kann. Worauf es bei der Lösung von Regelungsaufgaben eigentlich ankommt, ist nicht die Kenntnis vieler Formeln und Rechenverfahren, sondern das Erfassen der Zusammenhänge im Regelkreis. Genau diese beschreibt das vorliegende Buch in anschaulicher Form. Parallel zur Theorie wird die Praxis von regelungstechnischen Vorgängen mit den Simulations-Tools WinFACT und Multisim ausführlich erläutert. Hiermit lassen sich sehr einfach Versuche mit regelungstechnischen Modulen und umfangreichen Messinstrumenten simulieren, Fehler aufspüren und Lösungen für die Praxis finden. Nebenbei entsteht so ein fundiertes Grundlagenwissen.

The short-wave technique has a very particular appeal: It can easily bridge long distances. By reflecting short-wave signals off the conductive layers of the ionosphere, they can be received in places beyond the horizon and therefore can reach anywhere on earth. Although technology is striving for ever higher frequencies, and radio is usually listened to on FM, DAB+, satellite or the Internet, modern means of transmission require extensive infrastructure and are extremely vulnerable. In the event of a global power outage, there is nothing more important than the short-wave. Amateur radio is not only a hobby, it’s also an emergency radio system! Elektor’s SDR-Shield is a versatile shortwave receiver up to 30 MHz. Using an Arduino and the appropriate software, radio stations, morse signals, SSB stations, and digital signals can be received. In this book, successful author and enthusiastic radio amateur, Burkhard Kainka describes the modern practice of software defined radio using the Elektor SDR Shield. He not only imparts a theoretical background but also explains numerous open source software tools.

Microcontrollers have become an indispensable part of modern electronics. They make things possible that vastly exceed what could be done previously. Innumerable applications show that almost nothing is impossible. There’s thus every reason to learn more about them, but that raises the question of where to find a good introduction to this fascinating technology. The answer is easy: this Microcontroller Basics book, combined with the 89S8252 Flash Board project published by Elektor Electronics. However, this book offers more than just a basic introduction. It clearly explains the technology using various microcontroller circuits and programs written in several different programming languages. Three microcontrollers from the 8051 family are used in the sample applications, ranging from the simple 89C2051 to the AN2131, which is designed to support USB applications. The programming tools include assemblers, Basic-52 and BASCOM-51, and several C compilers. Every reader can thus find the programming environment most suitable to his or her needs. In the course of the book, the reader gradually develops increased competence in converting his or her ideas into microcontroller circuitry. All of the sample programs can be downloaded from the Elektor Electronics website or the author’s website. That has the added advantage that the latest versions are always available.

A Toolbox for Audio Lovers and Engineers Without any ambition to reach scientific levels, this book aims to be a toolbox for both audio lovers and high-end equipment designers. The elementary theory presented is the bare minimum for readers to grasp the operation and practical use of electrical, electromagnetic, physics, and electronic operations available in the designers’ toolbox. Each tool is explained in a minimum of words and theory without needless coverage of underlying equations or figures. The book chapters guide you through the process of designing quality amplifiers with vacuum tubes, from the very beginning, considering both technical and subjective requirements – in theory and practice. The book is a compilation of the author’s notes used in his professional and educational career but was nevertheless primarily written as a result of true love for the audiophile hobby.
