With an emphasis on applications and troubleshooting, this popular text takes a strong systems approach that identifies the circuits and components within a system and helps students see how the circuit relates to the overall system function. Well known for its straightforward, understandable style, it provides a solid foundation in basic analog electronics and a thorough introduction to analog integrated circuits and programmable devices. Updated throughout, this edition includes a new application activity feature, an optional programmable analog design feature, two lab manuals and new true/false quizzes at the end of each chapter.
