This comprehensive and well-organized text discusses the fundamentals of electronic communication, such as devices and analog and digital circuits, which are so essential for an understanding of digital electronics. Professor Santiram Kal, with his wealth of knowledge and his years of teaching experience, compresses, within the covers of a single volume, all the aspects of electronics - both analog and digital - encompassing devices such as microprocessors, microcontrollers, fibre optics, and photonics. In so doing, he has struck a fine balance between analog and digital electronics. A distinguishing feature of the book is that it gives case studies in modern applications of electronics, including information technology, that is, DBMS, multimedia, computer networks, Internet, and optical communication. Worked-out examples, interspersed throughout the text, and the large number of diagrams should enable the student to have a better grasp of the subject. Besides, exercises, given at the end of each chapter, will sharpen the student's mind in self-study. These student-friendly features are intended to enhance the value of the text and make it both useful and interesting.

This is an age of Electronics. At the dawn of the new millenium, it is no denying the fact that electronics has influenced the lifestyles of mankind in a manner never seen before. In order to understand the fundamentals of electronics, basic electronics is now taught as a compulsory subject for students of all branches of engineering. This book is planned to meet the requirements of a good and up-to-date book on basic electronics. The book discusses in a clear and concise way the fundamental principles and applications of basic electronics. The readers should find the book interesting particularly with large number of objective questions, solved problems and exercise problems.

Basic Electronics is an elementary text designed for basic instruction in electricity and electronics. It gives emphasis on electronic emission and the vacuum tube and shows transistor circuits in parallel with electron tube circuits. This book also demonstrates how the transistor merely replaces the tube, with proper change of circuit constants as required. Many problems are presented at the end of each chapter. This book is comprised of 17 chapters and opens with an overview of electron theory, followed by a discussion on resistance, inductance, and capacitance, along with their effects on the currents flowing in circuits under constant applied voltages. Resistances, inductances, and capacitances in series and parallel are considered. The following chapters focus on impedance and factors affecting impedance; electronics and electron tubes; semiconductors and transistors; basic electronic circuits; and basic amplifier circuits. Tuned circuits, basic oscillator circuits, and electronic power supplies are also described, together with transducers, antennas, and modulators and demodulators. This monograph will serve as background training in theory for electronic technicians and as fundamental background for students who wish to go deeper into the more advanced aspects of electronics.

Aims of the Book:The foremost and primary aim of the book is to meet the requirements of students pursuing following courses of study:1.Diploma in Electronics and Communication Engineering(ECE)-3-year course offered by various Indian and foreign polytechnics and technical institutes like city and guilds of London Institute(CGLI).2.B.E.(Elect.& Comm.)-4-year course offered by various Engineering Colleges.efforts have beenmade to cover the papers:Electronics-I & II and Pulse and Digital Circuits.3.B.Sc.(Elect.)-3-Year vocationalised course recently introduced by Approach.

Basic Electronics Engineering provides a thorough explanation of the field's basic ideas, methods, and tools. Almost all Indian technical institutes and several international institutions use this book to teach their introductory electronics course. Undergraduates in any branch of engineering will find it extremely useful. The fundamentals of circuit analysis and electrical devices are the exclusive emphasis of this text. The work focuses on fundamental understanding of circuit theory's underlying concepts. It's divided up into seven sections, each of which has its own unique focus while also contributing to a larger technological whole. Digital electronics, digital computers, and digital systems are covered in detail, as are the basics of circuitry, alternating current (AC) circuits, diode applications, semi-conductor diodes and transistors, and operational amplifiers and circuits. It provides sufficiently deep understanding of this subject for students to interact intelligently with other engineers.

This clear, well-illustrated introduction to electronic equipment covers the safe use of electronic devices and basic test equipment, plus numerous essential topics: electron tubes, semiconductors, electronic power supplies, tuned circuits, an introduction to amplifiers, receivers, ranging and navigation systems, an introduction to computers, antennas, AM/FM, and much more. 560 illustrations.

This book gives a concise presentation of the fundamentals of Electronics with applications mainly to Biosciences. It is thought that Mechanical Engineers, Computer Scientists, Physicists, Chemical Engineers and Bio-Scientists, students and graduates, will benefit from studying the book, as they will be helped to understand better the operation of the electronic equipment they use in their daily life at home and/or at work. It will also be useful to those who participate in multidisciplinary working teams, which require use of electronic equipment in their research and development projects. Additionally, it will be useful to teachers of electronics and corresponding students in Non-Electronic Engineering Departments at Technical Colleges and Universities. No previous knowledge of electronics is assumed and the reader will be helped to comprehend the material by following the numerical examples and solving the problems using MATLAB and Simulink programs.

This is an established textbook on Basic Electronics for engineering students. It has been revised according to the latest syllabus. The second edition of the book includes illustrations and detailed explanations of fundamental concepts with examples. The entire syllabus has been covered in 12 chapters.

Basic Electronics, meant for the core science and technology courses in engineering colleges and universities, has been designed with the key objective of enhancing the students' knowledge in the field of electronics. Solid state electronics, a rapidly-evolving field of study, has been extensively researched for the latest updates, and the authors have supplemented the related chapters with customized pedagogical features. The required knowledge in mathematics has been developed throughout the book and no prior grasp of physical electronics has been assumed as an essential requirement for understanding the subject. Detailed mathematical derivations illustrated by solved examples enhance the understanding of the theoretical concepts. With its simple language and clear-cut style of presentation, this book presents an intelligent understanding of a complex subject like electronics.
