As the leading text of its kind, this valuable classic has set the standard for 30 years. Now in its eighth edition, it retains the same measure of excellence as it continues to provide the most current and comprehensive coverage of electronic devices and circuit theory available. Following are only a few of the features integrated throughout this outstanding text:
- a systems approach, enabling the reader to become adept in the application of packaged systems
- troubleshooting, necessary for a complete understanding of real-world situations
- hands-on applications utilizing PSpice® and Electronics Workbench®
- elaborate use of problem sets and examples to reinforce basic concepts
This is a core text for an upper-level course in devices and active circuits, appropriate for two- and four-year colleges, universities, and schools of technology. Included with each copy of the text-is a CD-ROM containing Electronics Workbench® Version 5 and Electronics Workbench Multisim® circuit files, as well as CircuitMaker® circuit files and Student Version software.
