VIRTUAL ELECTRONICS AT WARP SPEED'AND MAX FUN

Popular electronics writer John J. Adams (of the oft hit, technology-explaining BasicElectronics.com Web site and BasicElectronics.CD learning software) has created a power user's guide to the tool that revolutionized electronics. Mastering Electronics Workbench', Version 5 & Multisim' Version 6 is the first guide with a handle on both the possibilities and the fun of working with this potent virtual electronics bench. So well explained that you don't even need a hobbyist's background in electronics to begin, yet detailed and comprehensive enough to be useful to pros, John Adams' book can take you from a standstill to warp speed in no time flat, using fun, skill-building projects and examples every step of the way. Inside you'll find clearly illustrated, learn-as-you-go instructions, simple enough for a beginner to understand. But serious hobbyists or professionals who want to design and test sophisticated circuits quickly will find the help they need in the author's screenshot-by-screenshot coverage of Electronics Workbench's (and its replacement software, Multisim) components and capabilities.

Probably the single best way to reach a deeper understanding of electronics and undoubtedly the most fun John Adams' entertaining guide to EWB features:
'Confusion-lifting introduction to computer-aided electronics design, SPICE, and mixed-mode simulation
'Simple instructions that make menus, components, and functions a snap to use
'Insider tips, tricks, insights, and hints from everyday users as well as the engineers and programmers who created EWB and Multisim.
'Visits with users who've created circuits for everything from toys to tomorrow's weapons
'Full demonstrations of drag-and-drop circuit design, letting you take a project from idea to finished circuit board in minutes.
'Practical uses that enhance your job performance and create improvements in home electronics, computing, and hobby projects
'CD-ROM with demo EWB, Multisim, and Ultiboard software including this book's simulations and circuits.
'Quick reference guide to functions
'Common EWB & Multisim definitions throughout.

Written with the total cooperation of EWB/Multisim maker Interactive Image Technologies (now called Electronics Workbench), this guide gives you an insider's edge with this amazing product. John Adams' Mastering Electronics Workbench, Version 5 & Multisim Version 6 is a power tool that shows you how to take EWB to its limits, and turn yourself into an EWB master.
