Foundations Of Analog And Digital Electronic Circuits 1st Edition unifies the world of physics, electronics, and computation. The textbook is designed for students of core engineering courses as well as computer science. Updated concepts, latest developments, problem sets, and web references are provided in this book, and will assist students in learning the basics of analog and digital circuits. Summary Of The Book Foundations Of Analog And Digital Electronic Circuits 1st Edition is designed to help students progress from the world of physics into the world of electronics and computation. The aim of this textbook is to unify circuits and electronics, and link them with digital systems. The world is now dominated by the digital domain. Thus, it is important that traditional methods of teaching that only focused on electrical engineering needs to be updated. Contemporary concepts demonstrate how they are applicable in both digital and analog domains. Foundations Of Analog And Digital Electronic Circuits 1st Edition has a total of sixteen chapters. Some of them are Resistive Networks, The Digital Abstraction, First-order Transients In Linear Electrical Networks, Sinusoidal Steady State: Resonance, and Diodes. Students will see that this book comprehensively covers the important topics, and provides explanations by using contemporary devices when possible. Additionally, it introduces readers to numerous abstract devices through examples and exercises to enable them to understand the fundamentals correctly. This also helps students to be able to deal with any other type of devices, even those that are yet to be invented. The chapters have been sequenced in such a way that they can be fit into a one or two semester integrated course on circuits and electronics. Each chapter ends with exercises and problem sets. Those students who wish to graduate with degrees in core electrical engineering like communication, signal processing, digital and RF circuits, or in computer engineering like operating systems, languages, architecture, and compilers, will find this textbook to be of immense help. In addition to illustrations of concepts with real devices, and practical digital electronics applications, Foundations Of Analog And Digital Electronic Circuits 1st Edition, is accompanied by a reference site that includes supplementary sections, examples, an instructor’s manual, and a link to the MIT OpenCourseWare website. Engineering, and Computer Science students should use this textbook in order to thoroughly understand the concepts, and excel in their field of study. About Anant Agarwal Anant Agarwal is a computer architecture researcher, a professor, and an author. He graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering from IIT-Madras. He then went on to do his M.S. and Ph.D in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University. In 1988, Agarwal joined the Electrical Engineering and Computer Science faculty at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). The author is the founder and CTO of a fabless semiconductor company named Tilera. He has also been a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery, and was the Director of MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory. Agarwal is the President of a edX, an initiative between MIT and Harvard University that provides free online education. In 2004, Agarwal and his team were awarded a Guinness World Record for LOUD. This device is the largest microphone array in the world, and has the capacity to correctly pinpoint, track, and amplify individual voices in a crowd. He has also received the MIT: Smullin Prize.
