Customer Reviews

One of the best books available on analogue
Principles of Electric Circuts is one of the best books available for people begining with analogue electronics, it starts with basic terms and formulaes, then goes into 4 main chapters, consisting of d.c circuts, a.c circuts, then various amplifiers and inductor circuts.
Each of the chapters starts with basic ideas before going onto the more complex parts of the chapter, there are worked examples throughout the book, and quick fire questions before a more intense question sub-topic at the end of each chapter, for beginners there is not a better book.
