Introductory Digital Electronics

Appropriate for Digital Electronics courses in vocational-technical schools and community colleges. Following the success of Introductory DC/AC Electronics and Introductory Semiconductor Electronics , Nigel Cook was besieged with requests to follow with an Introductory Digital Electronics text using the same student-friendly writing style, practical treatment, real-world applications, and troubleshooting that made his other books come to life for technician-level students. From binary numbers and logic gates to programmable logic devices and microprocessor-based systems, this text blends basic digital electronic theory with the latest in digital technology. To prepare the students for the workplace; manufacturer data sheets are integrated into the text, application circuit examples are included, extensive troubleshooting techniques and procedures are applied to all combined chapter application circuits, and the final chapter contains a detailed component-level description of a microprocessor-based system, including schematic diagram interpretation, troubleshooting procedures and typical system faults. This fine-tuned, carefully tested and accuracy checked volume will instantly prove its worth providing a high level of student satisfaction leading to excellent student retention.Cook, Nigel P. is the author of 'Introductory Digital Electronics' with ISBN 9780675213349 and ISBN 0675213347.
