Summary
Summary
The information in all electronic systems is carried by waves. This text and reference explains the various fundamental techniques of wave-forming and processing in pulse circuits, and illustrates their application in three widely used wave-processing systems: television, pulse-height analyzers, and time-of-flight mass spectrometers. New applications are addressed, including the digital modulator for simultaneous transmission of three signals, modulation and detection in optical fiber systems, and the 100-channel IC pulse-height analyzer. Well-illustrated and contains many worked examples and up-to-date references.

Choice Review
Chiang (biomedical engineering, Chung Yuan Christian University, Taiwan) has written basically an undergraduate textbook that includes questions, problems, and references at the end of each chapter. The material ranges from a review of the operating characteristics of a junction diode to descriptions of the circuits and functions of television receivers and a modern mass spectrometer. The emphasis is on the design of circuits used to shape and process electrical waveforms. The level is that of second- or third-year undergraduate students. Because of its limited scope and lack of emphasis on underlying principles, the text is not appropriate for most college libraries other than those serving training programs for electronic repair.-B.
