Summary

This student handbook has been designed to help any student understand how electronic circuits work. It provides the underpinning knowledge necessary to appreciate the operation of a wide range of basic electronic circuits including amplifiers, logic gates, power supplies, timers and pulse generators. The coverage is ideal for students following formal courses such as GNVQ and is equally well suited to those who may be returning to study or studying independently. Little previous knowledge is assumed except GCSE maths.


The great value of this text in comparison to the many other similar titles is its practical nature. Throughout the book real circuits are described along with enough information for readers to build, adapt and modify them for their own use.
