Synopsis

This student-oriented text familiarizes undergraduates with the electronics involved in scientific instrumentation and control systems for use in research and end products. Suitable for the one- or two-semester courses, the text emphasizes electronics applications, rather than the physics or engineering of a device. This makes the material suitable for students who need a fundamental knowledge of electronics for the laboratory or workplace. Manufacturers' data sheets for nearly every common component are gathered in a convenient appendix, making learning and applications much easier and providing students with a valuable reference tool.

About this title

Synopsis:

This student oriented text familiarizes undergraduates with the electronics involved in scientific instrumentation and control systems for use in research and end products. Suitable for one or two-semester courses, the material is balanced between mathematical and verbal descriptions, moving from a quantitative approach in early chapters to a more descriptive one. The third edition has been extensively updated to reflect state-of-the-art electronics. Emphasizes a focus on application of electronics, rather than on the physics or engineering of a device, makes the material suitable for students from across the sciences who need a fundamental knowledge of electronics for the laboratory or work place. Manufacturers' data sheets of nearly every common component are gathered in a convenient appendix, making learning and applications much easier and providing students with a valuable reference tool.
