Principles of transistor circuits: Introduction to the design of amplifiers, receivers, and digital circuits

For over thirty years, Stan Amos has provided students and practitioners with a text they could rely on to keep them at the forefront of transistor circuit design. This seminal work has now been presented in a clear new format and completely updated to include the latest equipment such as laser diodes, Trapatt diodes, optocouplers and GaAs transistors, and the most recent line output stages and switch-mode power supplies. Although integrated circuits have widespread application, the role of discrete transistors is undiminished, both as important building blocks which students must understand and as practical solutions to design problems, especially where appreciable power output or high voltage is required.  New circuit techniques covered for the first time in this edition include current-dumping amplifiers, bridge output stages, dielectric resonator oscillators, crowbar protection circuits, thyristor field timebases, low-noise blocks and SHF amplifiers in satellite receivers, video clamps, picture enhancement circuits, motor drive circuits in video recorders and camcorders, and UHF modulators. The plan of the book remains the same: semiconductor physics is introduced, followed by details of the design of transistors, amplifiers, receivers, oscillators and generators. Appendices provide information on transistor manufacture and parameters, and a new appendix on transistor letter symbols has been included.

Butterworth-Heinemann

A textbook covering the design of transistors, amplifiers, receivers, oscillators, generators and digital circuits. Since the previous edition was published in 1981 the use of integrated circuits has become even more widespread and miniaturisation has reached the point where half a million components can be accommodated on a single silicon chip. In radio and television receivers and video recorders, for example, most of the functions are carried out by integrated circuits. Nevertheless there is still a role for discrete transistors, particularly where appreciable power output for high-voltage operation is required. There are, for example, 30 in a 1989 model colour television receiver and considerably more in a video recorder. Discrete transistors are also likely to be used in experimental work and in the early stages of design of electronic equipment. So there is still a need for information on the use of transistors in electronic circuits and this book is intended to provide it.

Newnes

This dictionary is intended primarily to be of benefit to engineers and technicians who are working in electronics, students who are studying the subject, or amateurs who are interested in it. Few technologies have advanced at such a rate during the past few decades as electronics. This third edition incorporates over 400 new definitions. All entries from the second edition have been checked and amended to take account of recent developments, or reworded to improve clarity. * From Amplifier to Zenon Tube * 'reference book par excellence' * Includes older terms as well as latest jargon

Scroggie's Foundations is a classic text for anyone working with electronics, who needs to know the art and craft of the subject. Based on experience since the dawn of the electronic age, and updated in regular editions over 60 years, it covers both the theory and practical aspects of a huge range of topics from valve and tube technology, and the application of cathode ray tubes to radar, to digital tape systems and optical recording techniques. Since Foundations of Wireless was first published over 60 years ago, it has helped many thousands of readers to become familiar with the principles of radio and electronics. The original author Sowerby was succeeded by Scroggie in the 1940s, whose name became synonymous with this classic primer for practitioners and students alike. Stan Amos, one of the fathers of modern electronics and the author of many well known books in the area, took over the revision of this book in the 1980s and it is he, with his son, who have produced this latest version. The flavour of this book remains unchanged. Its original aim was to be 'non-mathematical in treatment' and be an 'elementary textbook'. With the use of example and analogy, the field of electronics is covered in depth with a lightness of touch not usually found in technical work. In this latest edition, Foundations provides much more than just the basics. Not only has the book been reset and revised throughout, but also new sections on digital technology, and storage and recording, have been added. This book has always been a companion and guide for those involved in electronics, from the early days of radio to the latest digital revolution. Updated classic including valve technology New information on data storage and digital electronics Based on experience since the dawn of the electronic age, and updated in regular editions over 60 years

Scroggie's Foundations of Wireless and Electronics, Eleventh Edition

Over the last 40 years, Principles of Transistor Circuits has provided students and practitioners with a text they can rely on to keep them at the forefront of transistor circuit design. Although integrated circuits have widespread application, the role of discrete transistors both as important building blocks which students must understand, and as practical solutions to design problems, remains undiminished. The ninth edition has been thoroughly updated to cover the latest technology and applications, including computer circuit simulation, and many diagrams have been revised to bring them in line with current usage. Updated topics include thyristors, Darlington transistors, amplifiers, ring modulators, power supplies, optoelectronics and logic circuits.
