Electronic Devices and Circuit Theory

by Robert L. Boylestad, Louis Nashelsky

This book was initially published in 1972 and has been a highly accurate and easily comprehensible university level text throughout the modern period of electronics and computer revolution.

Starting with semiconductor diodes and diode applications, the book systematically progresses from one chapter to another. It provides a thorough understanding of fundamental concepts like diodes and transistors before tackling the higher level topics like Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) devices, and Field-Effect Transistor (FET) devices.

In addition to that, it deals with various other topics like Feedback and Oscillator Circuits, Power Supplies, other Two-Terminal Devices, and PNPN and other devices. It also reflects on the growing importance of operational amplifiers in today's market. Along with the basics of designing FET amplifier networks, all the typical configurations of JFET and MOSFET circuits has also been examined.

The authors take a systems approach to their subject, ensuring students comprehend fundamental concepts before they tackle advanced topics as compound configurations, power supplies, and oscilloscopes. The circuit files are also provided. For each device examined, the text covers most configurations and applications and also included are discussions of the full range of related topics typically addressed in the course, with clear, precise explanations and plenty of examples to back them up.

A book that gives total information required in electronic circuit point of view. It explains in detail with necessary equations and problems. Good for a beginner

This book is wow. I switched over my graduation field to Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Bachelor in Computer Applications and nothing seemed to excite me about electronics back then. THIS was the most interesting text I found back then. It will guide you and then test your knowledge aptly. Recommend also for people starting to learn electronics as a hobby.

Firstly. I value and respect everyone's opinions. Certainly many intelligent people participate in this site, they deserve full respect, and this must be mutual.
My views are based on 30 years of academia, as a Student and Master, working with Scientific Research in several countries, and for having several designations, including Federal.
Boylestadt is highly respected and that's fair. However, its literature is effective perhaps at the beginning of an Engineering Course, 01 or 02 years. After that, many deficiencies become noticeable. The subjects are presented in a coherent way, however oversimplified. I believe that if used to instruct technical students they would be more useful. A beginning engineering student should have access to materials that facilitate their understanding, I agree. But after a few years, it becomes useless and ineffective. Excellent material for beginning students, but inefficient for more experienced students. Other point. The author uses oversimplifications. It could be useful for technical levels, but for future Engineers it is ineffective and harmful. When equations and deductions are simplified in an "uncontrolled" way, relevant variables and constants are underestimated, resulting in inconsistent results. Perhaps this fact is not important for the training of professionals. The negative results of such a practice are noticeable in professional life, when the mathematical modeling does not match the reality of a system in operation. An engineering student should not be spared algebraic complexity, in fact he must master it. Perhaps it has a fascinating appearance for beginning Students. But for an Experienced Professional...it's very limited. Thanks.

Might it be said that you are looking for a circuit repairman who can do irrelevant electrical fixes around your home? Then, look no further! We have an outline of neighborhood electrical specialists who can oversee you.

very nice book

[Eti · Rating 5 out of 5]

It is one of the best ever books to introduce some of the most routinely used devices in electronic design. If you want to thoroughly understand the device fundamentals, read this book and solve problems without fail to test your grasp of the device characteristics and behaviour. I highly recommend this book.

It is a good book to begin to study and learn the basic principles of electronics. It explain clearly. I recommend this one.
