This is a core text giving an excellent introduction to all aspects
of this important and dynamic subject. The book adopts an
innovative and highly tested functional approach, which emphasises
the functions and objectives. The presentation is oriented to a
generalised treatment of functional blocks of electronics. The
approach has two major advantages : It enables students to
understand basic needs and tackle them with available devices and
circuits of today, at the same time giving them the background to
rapidly adjust to any new advances in future ;It avoids redundancy
and enables the coverage of wide range of topics in a limited time
period.The book uses a generalised model for all devices like a
vacuum triode, bipolar junction transistor and field effect
transistor. Such a model enables an integrated treatment of
different versions of each functional block and avoids unnecessary
duplication. The approach is much more relevant today because of
the advent of integrated circuits, which essentially are functional
electronic blocks. The book is highly useful and follows the mode
approach, excellent coverage, and abundance of worked examples and
problems is an ideal introductory text for engineering and physics
students.
