Industrial Electronics focuses on the electronics involved in the production of goods and services. It draws on a wide variety of concepts, ranging from discrete devices to control systems, and emphasizes how these fit into industrial applications. The text supports the traditional electronics courses taught in many two- and four-yearelectrical engineering technology programs. It is also a useful mechatronics text, providing a background in electromechanical concepts related to industrial machines and automation.
