  • Good book

    I guess I should have read more into it I already have the same copy sitting in my apartment right now so I'm going to give the copy to a close friend and I recommend that people should buy that book but if you already have it make sure you look at the content first I already have that addition I was hoping for a different edition to add to my collection if you do please post some I would actually try and look at some of them and see if I can afford them at the time if you guys offer them!!?!!!

  • Excellent modern reference for Electronics circuits and devices

    This book is virtually the same as the newest edition, the new edition has a short chapter about FPGAs and otherwise this is about the same book, and an excellent reference for amateur (and perhaps professional) electronics engineers. The writing in this book is very clear and fairly easy to follow, lots of diagrams to help one understand.
