About the book
"The Art of Electronics: The x-Chapters expands on topics introduced in the best selling third edition of The Art of Electronics, completing the broad discussions begun in the latter. In addition to covering more advanced materials relevant to its companion, The x-Chapters also includes extensive treatment of many topics in electronics that are particularly novel, important, or just exotic and intriguing. You'll find here techniques and circuits that are available nowhere else. The x-Chapters can be thought of as the missing pieces of The Art of Electronics, to be used either as its complement, or as a direct route to exploring some of the most exciting and oft-overlooked topics in advanced electronic engineering. This enticing spread of electronics wisdom and expertise will be an invaluable addition to the library of any student, researcher, or practitioner with even a passing interest in the design and analysis of electronic circuits and instruments. Why the "x-Chapters"? Simple answer: they are the eXtra Chapters that couldn't be shoehorned into the 1250-page third edition of The Art of Electronics; they are the completion of the broad discussions begun in the latter"--
Subjects: Engineering, Electronics, Electronic circuit design
