numberwrong Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Anyone have any good recommendations for books about electronics?? Obviously as a Lampie I'm not a novice however would like something that starts from the very beginning to fill any gaps. lots of pictures and diagrams are good! http://www.blue-room.org.uk/public/style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob_P Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 +1 for Horowitz and Hill.The section on "Circuits that look like they should work but don't" is especially useful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinw Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Another +1 for Horowitz and Hill. If you only buy one book on the subject this should be it. There is a new edition out soon too. Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_P Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I believe that there has been a new edition about to come out for a VERY long time. My second edition was published in 1989, and I believe it still the newest one!Luckily the basics don't change all that fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigclive Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 The basics haven't changed much, but components have evolved dramatically and the way circuits are designed has also changed with the widespread use of microcontrollers for even the simplest task.

numberwrong Posted September 18, 2013 Author Share Posted September 18, 2013 Thanks! Quite a chunky book to take on the tube, I'll just have to buy that wheeled peli case then (any excusehttp://www.blue-room.org.uk/public/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSalisbury Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I would suggest The Art of Electronics is rather out of date, you might like to read http://www.amazon.co.uk/Circuit-Designers-Companion-Peter-Wilson/dp/0080971385 on the tube.
