Laboratory Manual for Electronics via Waveform Analysis

Students will use the laboratory manual for detailed instructions on how to set up experiments, how and where to take data, and how to analyze the data.

Klappentext

The textbook for which this is the laboratory manual takes an unusual approach to teaching the fundamentals of electronics to physicists, namely to show in detail, via photographs from real circuits, the waveforms obtained at various points in an electronic circuit. While these waveforms sometimes look like what is predicted by the simple theories discussed in elementary courses, they are at times quite different. The book uses these differences to develop a more thorough understanding of the individual components and of the circuit as a whole. Most of the mathematical derivations are placed in an appendix, leaving the main text to discuss the physical and visualizable aspects of electronics.
