Digital Electronics Demystified
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 4 Date: 2005-05-30 Summary: An intriguing book... ... I bought this book the other day, as I have often wondered exactly how boolean logic got instantiated in electronic devices, but couldn't seem to get past the first few pages of most intro texts. The author's style of writing is very engaging, and easy to follow. I was able to get through the first couple chapters sitting in the book store! I am looking forward to finishing the book, as it promises to provide me with a good grounding in this area. The biggest difference I saw in this book was the careful stepping from ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-06-30 Summary: Excellent Introduction Book ... This is an excellent book for the hobbyist looking to get started with electronics or anyone who needs some clarification on some aspects of digital electronics. The book describes things clearly and in a simple manner so that the basics are easy to grasp, and then brings in the gory details required to fully understand it. This has usually been the failing point of the other books on the subject I have tried to read; they do not make the very basic concepts easy to understand. I will admit, most of the material in ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | The field of teaching digital electronics has not changed significantly in the past 20 years. Many of the same books that first became available in the late 1970s and early 1980s are still being used as basic texts. In the 20+ years since these were written, the basic rules have not changed, but they do not provide strong links to modern electronics including CMOS logic, Programmable Logic Devices and microprocessor/microcontroller interfacing. Courses teaching introductory digital electronics...more

Digital Power Electronics and Applications
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | The purpose of this book is to describe the theory of Digital Power Electronics and its applications. The authors apply digital control theory to power electronics in a manner thoroughly different from the traditional, analog control scheme. In order to apply digital control theory to power electronics, the authors define a number of new parameters, including the energy factor, pumping energy, stored energy, time constant, and damping time constant. These parameters differ from traditional...more

Complete Digital Design: A Comprehensive Guide to Digital Electronics and Computer System Architecture (Professional Engineering)
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2008-03-07 Summary: 5 Stars for content- should take 1 off for the small font! ... I'm very impressed with "Complete Digital Design" (2003) in that it covers all aspects of modern digital design (with the exception of CMOS IC electronics). The coverage isn't superficial either- the author is very concise but still insightful in his overview of digital logic and computer architecture. Unlike nearly every other digital design book, the author also covers basic analog electronics, signal integrity and system design in general. This book should be considered the new bible of digital design since it's ...more
[2] Rating: 5 Date: 2007-07-23 Summary: Informative and comprehensive ... Ah, I wish I'd found this book two years ago. Back then, when I just started working as an EE, the benefit I could gain from the book would be huge. Today, knowing at least 90% of what is has to say, I'm still very much impressed. Mark Balch takes a unifying approach I haven't seen in other books. Deciding to focus on the complete spectrum of digital/electronic design is a great decision, since most of the books out there either pay attention only to logic and assembly or only to leakage currents in diodes and bode ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | There are over 350,000 electrical and electronics engineers, and hundreds of thousands more electronics technicians and hobbyists. With the addition of so many communications topics into EE programs in the past 5 years, fundamentals of digital design have been abandoned for briefer, overview courses, leaving many newly-minted EEs undereducated in what should be one of their core competencies. In order to design and implement digital systems, one must understand and navigate many components,...more

Digital Computer Electronics
Customer Reviews — [1] Rating: 5 Date: 2002-05-03 Summary: The Best Book for building concept ... I read this book back in 80's while doing my bachelor in electronics engineering. This book gave me a solid understanding of the heart and sole of a computer. Later I used this book for my lectures at various levels. A must have book for every one who wants a real foundation in computer science career. ...more
[2] Rating: 4 Date: 2001-12-09 Summary: Digital Computer Electronics ... In general the approach of this book is definitely a good one for a beginner as well as a student well versed on the subject. The material covered in this book does require one to put the "full" effort forward, but with great effect. The only negative part of the book is that the SAP-2 model is not done correctly. Other then this, the book is great for learning digital logic. ...more
[3] Rating: 5 Date: 2001-10-09 Summary: Dated, but still better than all the rest ... This is hands-down the best introduction to the principles of digital electronics that I have ever read. With clear, concise explanations, I have used it as a self-teaching aid when I was first learning about digital logic as well as a source of material for my classes. The basic educational model is the example/solution and there is a self-testing review and problems at the end of each chapter. Solutions to the odd problems are included in an appendix. While the hardware used in the exercises is very dated, that does ...more
[4] Rating: 5 Date: 2002-08-31 Summary: Outstanding text ... I'm not sure if this is a later edition of the book I used or not 20 years ago, because it was just titled Digital Electronics back them. But if it is, and it's as good as the original edition, it was probably the best introduction to the subject I'd ever read. Clear and concise explanations of basic principles and digital circuit components made this a valuable reference and study book for me. In fact, as a result of reading this book on my own, I was able to test out of the introductory digital circuits class at ...more
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Striking an ideally balanced approach, this text introduces students to microprocessor fundamentals by using a pedagogical SAP (Simple-As-Possible) model computer. The text then relates these fundamentals to three real-world examples: Intel’s 8085, Motorola’s 6800, and the 6502 chip used by Apple Computers. Instructors can focus on just one of these popular microprocessors, or include the features of others. This edition correlates closely with popular chip trainers and includes added...more

Modern Digital Electronics
Editorial Reviews — ... Product Description | Part of the McGraw-Hill Core Concepts Series, Modern Digital Electronics is an ideal textbook for a course on digital electronics at the undergraduate level. The text introduces digital systems and techniques through a bottom-up approach that allows users to start out with the basics of integrated circuits/circuit design and delve into topics such as digital design, flip flops, A/D and D/A. The book then moves on to explore elements of complex digital circuits with material like FPGAs,...more
