ABSTRACT

Richly illustrated in full color, this textbook introduces you to the fascinating world of analog electronics, where fields, circuits, signals and systems, and semiconductors meet. The author expertly blends theory with practical examples to give a clear understanding of how real electronic circuits work. The book reviews the prerequisite mathematics, physics, and chemistry and the theory of circuits before delving into passive and active electronic devices. Taking a fresh approach, it connects electronics to everyday life through interesting observations, key personalities, and real-world applications.
