AI Thread Summary
For signals and systems, Alan V. Oppenheim's book is highly recommended for its clarity and foundational concepts essential for electronic communication engineers. In the realm of electronic devices and circuits, "Electronic Principles" by Albert Malvino is praised for its comprehensive coverage of essential topics. Additionally, "The Art of Electronics" by Paul Horowitz and Winfield Hill is mentioned as a valuable resource, though its effectiveness is questioned. Another suggested book is "Electric Circuits" by Nilsson, which is noted for its relevance to high voltage subjects. Overall, these titles are considered crucial for mastering the core principles in both areas.

I've just started my [signals and systems] and [electronic devices and circuits] this sem...and i am learning that signals and systems topics are the core and fundamental concepts required for a electronic communication engineer...
though i haven't found a great book that covers all the topics as "classically" simply and fundamentally as they ought to be..especially for electronic-devices-components, the phenomena in various devices such as bjt's fet's scr's arent well explained...all i could find are summaries of the points...so I'm desperately in search of atleast a book for each of the topics...

a book for electronic-devices-components - "the art of electronics"- by paul horrowitz and winfield hill ... is it really that great?
thanks in advance..

1. Signals and Systems. Alan V. Oppenheim. https://www.amazon.com/dp/0138147574/?tag=pfamazon01-20

2. Electronic Principles. Albert Malvino https://www.amazon.com/dp/0028028333/?tag=pfamazon01-20

Without doubt the best books I own. I can't imagine my daily learning, without opening at least one of them.

Dear Bassalisk, thanks alot! I've made my mind to own the 'alan oppenheim' for SS..can you name any other books for electronic principles?

Well Electronic principles is the book which covers everything that you will need to understand electric circuits.

Book is really well made. But other than Malvino, Electric Circuits by Nilsson is not bad if you are going to need basics for high voltage subjects.

Other than Electronic principles, I use google a lot. But like I said, this book is really well made.
 
Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...
I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...
Thread 'Beauty of old electrical and measuring things, etc.'
Even as a kid, I saw beauty in old devices. That made me want to understand how they worked. I had lots of old things that I keep and now reviving. Old things need to work to see the beauty. Here's what I've done so far. Two views of the gadgets shelves and my small work space: Here's a close up look at the meters, gauges and other measuring things: This is what I think of as surface-mount electrical components and wiring. The components are very old and shows how...
