Electronics for Dummies Book

Students will find this a great reference and supplement to the typical dry, dull textbook. So whether you just want to bone up on electronics or want to get things hooked up, souped up, or fixed up,...whether you’re interested in ham radio, fixing old electronic equipment, understanding guitar fuzz amps, or tinkering with robots, Electronics For Dummies is your quick connection to the stuff you need to know.

Whether you’re a do-it-yourselfer, hobbyist, or student, this book will turn you on to real-world electronics. It quickly covers the essentials, and then focuses on the how-to instead of theory.

It covers:

• Fundamental concepts such as circuits, schematics, voltage, safety, and more
• Tools of the trade, including multimeters, oscilloscopes, logic probes, and more
• Common electronic components (e.g. resistors, capacitors, transistors)
• Making circuits using breadboards and printed circuit boards
• Microcontrollers (implementation and programming).
