  This comprehensive text is suitable for introductory courses in analogue and digital electronics design. Its unique 'top-down' systems approach to electronics starts by covering overall concepts and gradually increasing the level of detail as the reader progresses through the book ideal for motivating students new to this subject. It covers the electronics material needed to provide an initial understanding of the design, operation and use of electronic circuits. The accompanying simulation tools help students conceptualise and understand electronic circuits by allowing the reader to visualise the relevant systems, and by reducing the need to perform complex mathematical analysis.

  Updated to take account of changes in this ever more important field, the second edition of this popular text provides an engaging and accessible introduction to the principles of electronics. Its 'systems-oriented' approach is now accepted as an illuminating and motivational method of addressing the subject. Overall concepts are explained first, supplying the reader with the confidence and understanding needed to tackle the more detailed analysis which follows. This book also offers an integrated treatment of analogue and digital electronics, highlighting and exploring the common ground between the two fields. Throughout the book, learning is reinforced by chapter objectives, end of chapter summaries, worked examples, exercises and tips for further reading. Every chapter also includes a comprehensive design case study linking theory to everyday practice. Electronics: A Systems Approach is intended for undergraduate and diploma students in all fields of engineering and science. For students of electronics it provides a coherent and comprehensive set of material suitable for introductory courses in analogue and digital design. For students of other disciplines it covers most of the electronics material they will need for their courses.
