Description

Everything you should have learnt in school, but probably didn’t! This book is great for electronics newbies, or if you just need a refresher course. Topics ranging from Ohm’s law to proper usage of an oscilloscope to managing and interacting with employees are covered.

The book approaches all of its topics in a very straight-forward, practical manner, and all the important information is summed up nicely in a “Rules-of-Thumb” section. The information presented in this book will provide a great start towards building or reinforcing your EE knowledge.

We’re carrying this book because the author (Darren Ashby) thinks and writes like we do. He has a large disclaimer in the front of the book, but points out that electronics can be taught to anyone with the right approach. We agree.

A few of the topics covered:

  • What is electricity really?
  • Ohm’s Law
  • Capacitors and Inductors
  • Op-Amps
  • Microprocessor Basics
  • Motors
  • Power Supplies
  • Tools (soldering irons, oscilloscopes, etc.)
  • Troubleshooting
  • Communication Skills
