      • Paul Bergsman
      • English
      Connect your MS-DOS/Windows PC to the real world with this bestselling book! Control stepper motors, turn appliances on and off, monitor fluid levels, control a home security system, convert thermometer readings to digital values, detect magnetic fields, and do other useful stuff with the circuits and software found in this book. All circuits connect directly to the parallel printer port of your PC—you don't have to modify your PC in any way. Each circuit is complete with a schematic, description of circuit theory and operation, a parts list, construction and usage tips, and full source code in C, Basic, and Pascal for the controlling software. You can use each circuit "as is" or modify it for your particular needs. Do as thousands and thousands of others around the world have done—add this book to your electronics reference library! Over 200 large-format pages plus HD floppy disk.

    • International Progress in Precision Engineering

      Proceedings of the 7th International Precision Engineering Seminar, Kobe, Japan, May 1993
      • 1st Edition
      • Fumiko Ikawa-Smith
      • English
      International Progress in Precision Engineering documents the proceedings of the 7th International Precision Engineering Seminar held in Kobe, Japan, May 1993. The seminar brought together the world's leading precision engineering practitioners from areas of application as diverse as sensors, actuators, scanning tip microscopy, micro and nano machining (including bio-machining), ultra precision measuring machines, machine tools, and large optics for space technology. The seminar included 10 oral sessions that dealt with the following topics: (I) Metrology - The Science Base For Precision Engineering; (II) Sensors and Actuators in Precision Engineering and Nanotechnology; (III) New Materials - Applications and Ultra-Precision Energy Beam Processing; (IV) Nanotechnology Machining Processes; (V) New Developments In Ultra-Precision Machines; (VI) Ultra-Precision, Servo, and Control Technology; (VII) Precision Engineering in Space Technology; (VIII) X-Ray Technologies and Their Applications; (IX) Micromechanics and Micrometrology; and (X) New Developments n Precision Engineering. There were also poster sessions and an introductory keynote speech by Dr. H. Mizuno, Executive Vice-President of Matsushita/Panasonic... who talks on the symbiotic relationship between electronics and precision engineering.

    • Diesel Generator Handbook

      • 1st Edition
      • L. L. J. Mahon
      • English
      Diesel Generator Handbook meets the need for an authoritative reference work covering the range of mechanical and electrical topics embodied in the practical design and application of diesel generating plant. It will be particularly welcomed in many parts of the developing world where the diesel generator is basic to the electricity supply system. The discussion covers, in fifteen chapters, the prime mover, power ratings, synchronous generators, load assessment, control principles and systems, switchgear and controlgear, standby power, fuels and lubricating oilss, installation and commissioning, noise reduction, and plant operation and maintenance. The book thus caters for all who are concerned with the selection, specification, testing, commissioning, operation and maintenance of diesel-based generator systems: not only the practising plant or services engineers, but also non-specialist engineers and users. The young technician or trainee engineer who is embarking on a career in the supply industry will find this handbook an invaluable investment. L L J Mahon, FIEE, FBIM, after an engineering apprenticeship with BTH in Rugby, gained over 30 years' experience in the design, development, manufacture, installation and commissioning of both stationary and highly specialised mobile diesel generator plant for a range of applications.

    • Analog Circuit Design

      Art, Science and Personalities
      • 1st Edition
      • Jim Williams
      • English
      This book is far more than just another tutorial or reference guide - it's a tour through the world of analog design, combining theory and applications with the philosophies behind the design process. Readers will learn how leading analog circuit designers approach problems and how they think about solutions to those problems. They'll also learn about the `analog way' - a broad, flexible method of thinking about analog design tasks.

    • Troubleshooting Analog Circuits

      • 1st Edition
      • Robert Pease
      • English
      Based on the author's popular series in EDN Magazine, the book contains a wealth of information on debugging and troubleshooting analog circuits. In this book, you'll find advice on using simple equipment to troubleshoot (would you believe an ordinary AM radio?); step-by-step procedures for analog troubleshooting methods; and generous helpings of the author's unique insights, humor, and philosophy on analog circuits.
