This junior-level electronics text provides a foundation for analyzing and designing analog and digital electronic circuits. Computer analysis and computer aided design are recognized as significant factors in electronics throughout the book. The use of computer tools is presented carefully, alongside the important hand analysis and calculations. The author, Don Neamen, has many years experience as an enginering educator and an engineer. His experience shines through each chapter of the book, rich with realistic examples and practical rules of thumb. The book is divided into three parts. Part I covers semiconductor devices and basic circuit applications. Part II covers more advanced topics in analog electronics, and Part III considers digital electronic circuits.
