Industrial Electronics is a branch of electronics, which is used for industrial applications. It plays a crucial role in the efficient and smooth operation of manufacturing facilities and industrial processes. This book introduces the commonly used building blocks in industrial electronics. The reader learns which circuit can be used for which application. It is suitable as a laboratory manual for courses like: industrial electronics or power electronics.

This lab manual accompanies Electronic Devices and Circuits, 4/e.

The laboratory investigations in this manual are designed to demonstrate the theoretical principles set out in the book Fundamentals of Electronic Devices and Circuits, 5/e. A total of 43 laboratory investigations are offered, involving the construction and testing of the circuits discussed in the textbook. Each investigation can normally be completed within a two-hour period. The procedures contain some references to the textbook; however, all necessary circuit and connection diagrams are provided in the manual so that investigations can also be preformed without the textbook.

This book provides insights into practical aspects of electric circuits. The author provides real-world examples throughout this book. The devices chosen for this book can be found in nearly all laboratories. No expensive measurement devices are used throughout the book. Someone who reads this book has a better understanding of practical aspects of electric circuits. Chapter 1 introduces tools that will be used in the next chapters. Chapter 2 studies the resistors and contains 9 experiments. Chapter 3 studies the digital multimeters and contains 7 experiments. Chapter 4 studies Kirchhoff's voltage/current law, nodal/mesh analysis and Thevenin equivalent circuits. This chapter contains 5 experiments. Chapter 5 studies the first and second order circuits (RC, RL and RLC) and contains 4 experiments. Chapter 6 studies the DC and AC steady state behavior of electric circuits and frequency response of filters and has 5 experiments. Chapter 7 studies magnetic coupling and transformers and contains 3 experiments. Appendix A shows how different types of graphs can be drawn with MATLAB. Appendix B reviews the concept of root mean square.

This is a book for a lab course meant to accompany, or follow, any standard course in electronic circuit analysis. It has been written for sophomore or junior electrical and computer engineering students, either concurrently with their electronic circuit analysis class or following that class. This book is appropriate for non-majors, such as students in other branches of engineering and in physics, for which electronic circuits is a required course or elective and for whom a working knowledge of electronic circuits is desirable. This book has the following objectives: 1. To support, verify, and supplement the theory; to show the relations and differences between theory and practice. 2. To teach measurement techniques. 3. To convince students that what they are taught in their lecture classes is real and useful. 4. To help make students tinkerers and make them used to asking “what if” questions.

This book is primarily designed to serve as a textbook for undergraduate students of electrical, electronics, and computer engineering, but can also be used for primer courses across other disciplines of engineering and related sciences. The book covers all the basic aspects of electronics engineering, from electronic materials to devices, and then to basic electronic circuits. The book can be used for freshman (first year) and sophomore (second year) courses in undergraduate engineering. It can also be used as a supplement or primer for more advanced courses in electronic circuit design. The book uses a simple narrative style, thus simplifying both classroom use and self study. Numerical values of dimensions of the devices, as well as of data in figures and graphs have been provided to give a real world feel to the device parameters. It includes a large number of numerical problems and solved examples, to enable students to practice. A laboratory manual is included as a supplement with the textbook material for practicals related to the coursework. The contents of this book will be useful also for students and enthusiasts interested in learning about basic electronics without the benefit of formal coursework.
