Mastering Electronics is a complete, self-contained course for individual study or classroom use, which covers the subject from first principles in an accessible style. The fourth edition has been brought fully up-to-date with current new technology. It has been thoroughly re-organised to fit in with today's modular teaching, and to make it even easier to follow as a self-study book. The book contains new or completely re-written sections on Computer Simulation of Circuits and Systems, Mobile Telephone Technology, Modern Battery Technology and Computers. Much of the text has been re-written to improve the clarity of the explanations still further. An even wider range of illustrations and an extended glossary of terms are also included.

Electronic Workbench (EWB) software has forever changed the face of electronics. Including mixed-mode circuit simulation, schematic capture and PCB layout software, it provides a virtual bench for learning, experimenting with, and simulating electronics, including mixed-mode circuit simulation, schematic capture and PCB layout software. Mastering Electronics Workbench, by John Adams, is your guide to successfully using Electronics Workbench. You get detailed explanations of each component, instrument, and function. You learn how to install the program, how to use it to create circuit simulations and analysis models, and how to make complex designs. This guide is also packed with complete projects for hobbyists, technicians and engineers, each designed to help you learn the complexities of the program. The book covers menu options; creating a circuit - the drag and drop interface; the 2 minute circuit - making a simple circuit; advanced circuit simulations; practical uses For EWB; EWB layout software; and much more.

Introduction The Aims and Objectives of the Book My main aim in writing this book is to introduce you to the exciting and challenging field of digital electronics. I want to develop your desire and ability to understand how digital circuits work. After reading this book, you should be able to do some or all of the following: • You will understand what TTL and CMOS mean and appreciate their main differences. • You should know what the five main logic gates are and their respective symbols and Boolean expressions. • You should know the basics of Boolean algebra and use it to simplify logic expressions and circuits. • You should know what Karnaugh maps are and how to use them to simplify logic circuits and expressions. • You should know how to implement the 1st and 2nd canonical formats for Karnaugh maps. • You will know how the JK flip flop works and how it was born out of the SR latch. • You should be able to use the JK flip flop and the D-type latch to create a series of counters and different shift registers such as SIPO, SISO, PIPO, and PISO. • You should understand the difference between sequential and combinational logic. • You should be able to use a range of design techniques, that is, state diagrams, transition tables, etc. • You should be able to create a range of combinational logic circuits such as half and full adders, binary subtractors, multiplexers, etc. • You should understand how the 555-timer IC works and how to configure it in a range of different applications such as the monostable, the astable, and PWM. • You should be able to design a range of logic circuits. • You should be able to use the ECAD software TINA 12.

Mastering 3D Printing shows you how to get the most out of your printer, including how to design models, choose materials, work with different printers, and integrate 3D printing with traditional prototyping to make techniques like sand casting more efficient. You've printed key chains. You've printed simple toys. Now you're ready to innovate with your 3D printer to start a business or teach and inspire others. Joan Horvath has been an educator, engineer, author, and startup 3D printing company team member. She shows you all of the technical details you need to know to go beyond simple model printing to make your 3D printer work for you as a prototyping device, a teaching tool, or a business machine.

Nagy Hanna presents a systematic approach to integrate ICT into development policies and programs across sectors of economy and society. This book bridges the current disconnect between the ICT specialists and their development counterparts in various sectors so as to harness the ongoing ICT revolution to maximize development impact.
