Make: Electronics: Learning by Discovery: A hands-on primer for the new electronics enthusiast (3 ed) PDF
Make: Electronics explores the properties and applications of discrete components that are the fundamental building blocks of circuit design. Understanding resistors, capacitors, transistors, inductors, diodes, and integrated circuit chips is essential even when using microcontrollers. Make: Electronics teaches the fundamentals and also provides advice on the tools and supplies that are necessary. Component kits are available, specifically developed for the third edition.
From the Publisher
What’s New in Make: Electronics, Third Edition
Circuits have been simplified, the component count has been reduced, and most of the text has been revised, often in response to discussions with readers. “I am one of the few writers who includes a personal email address so that anyone can contact me easily,” Charles Platt comments. “The feedback has helped me to refine my text wherever people wanted additional explanations. I am also including some of the amazing projects that readers have developed after reading my book.”
Difficult concepts such as displacement current and self-inductance are now demonstrated with experiments that reveal the flow of current. An entirely new section has been added, comparing microcontrollers. All the full-color pictorial diagrams illustrating circuits have been redrawn for greater clarity. Now more than ever, Make: Electronics provides the easiest and most comprehensive introduction to electronics.
Review
“A fabulous book: well written, well paced, fun, and informative. I also love the sense of humor. It's excellent at disarming the fear. And it's gorgeous. I'll be recommending this book highly.” Tom Igoe, author of Physical Computing and Making Things Talk.
A “magnificent and rewarding book. Every step of this structured instruction is expertly illustrated with photos and crisp diagrams. . . . This is the best way to learn.” Kevin Kelly, in Cool Tools.
