Television IC Data Files, Second Edition

Due to the increasing complexity of television and video equipment there is a growing need for service information that is current, accurate, affordable and readily available. The purpose of this book is to provide the workshop technician and the field engineer with a valuable and convenient method of fault finding without the need to consult manufacturer's data books, which can be expensive and are often out of stock.

Each device is illustrated with a pin-out diagram, and all the measurements and signal data in the book were taken under actual working conditions. The information is designed so that the engineer can quickly compare voltage measurements and signal in/out data on a faulty device, with the devices in the book.

The second edition covers over 70 ICs not included previously, making this book an essential update for the many service engineers who have discovered that John Edwards books are a vital workshop tool. However, the purpose of the book remains to cover the devices most frequently found faulty in television sets in production since the late 1980s, so all the key ICs will still be found here.

This book will also be invaluable for colleges running City & Guilds 2240 courses and NVQs.

John Edwards runs his own audio visual services company and is a regular contributor to the UK's leading trade magazine Television.
