In the real world, most signals are analog, spanning continuously
varying values. Circuits that interface with the physical
environment need to be able to process these signals. Principles of
Analog Electronics introduces the fascinating world of analog
electronics, where fields, circuits, signals and systems, and
semiconductors meet. Drawing on the author's teaching experience,
this richly illustrated, full-color textbook expertly blends theory
with practical examples to give a clear understanding of how real
electronic circuits work. Build from the Essentials of Math,
Physics, and Chemistry to Electronic Components, Circuits, and
Applications Building a solid foundation, the book first explains
the mathematics, physics, and chemistry that are essential for
grasping the principles behind the operation of electronic devices.
It then examines the theory of circuits through models and
important theorems. The book describes and analyzes passive and
active electronic devices, focusing on fundamental filters and
common silicon-based components, including diodes, bipolar junction
transistors, and metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors
(MOSFETs). It also shows how semiconductor devices are used to
design electronic circuits such as rectifiers, power suppliers,
clamper and clipper circuits, and amplifiers. A chapter explores
actual applications, from audio amplifiers and FM radios to battery
chargers. Delve Deeper into Analog Electronics through Curiosities,
Key Personalities, and Practical Examples Each chapter includes
helpful summaries with key points, jargon, and terms, as well as
exercises to test your knowledge. Practical tables illustrate the
coding schemes to help identify commercial passive and active
components. Throughout, sidebars highlight "curiosities,"
interesting observations, and examples that make the subject more
concrete. This textbook offers a truly comprehensive introduction
to the fundamentals of analog electronics, including essential
background concepts. Taking a fresh approach, it connects
electronics to its importance in daily life, from music to medicine
and more.
