This book is designed to offer an understanding of electronic devices, circuits, and how they operate from a technician's perspective. Full of drawings, examples and lab experiments this text offers the student hands-on experience in preparing to become an electronics technician. Basic discrete components make up approximately 35% of the content of the text, with the balance dedicated to integrated circuits and other topics. Enabling the student to examine schematics and predict the voltages and waveforms present in circuits, this resource offers a hands-on experiment at the end of each chpater.
