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..

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.
 

Thread 'What happens if shielded cable has a short to the shield?'

While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

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...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
