DESCRIPTION:
Very accessible by beginners The third updated edition of Lawrence M. Thompson's BASIC ELECTRICITY AND ELECTRONICS FOR CONTROL: FUNDAMENTALS AND APPLICATIONS (155617988X) has been class tested and is an excellent primer for either classroom or on-job use. It covers behavior, not design - and it provides the basics of electricity as it's measured and controlled today. Chapters include procedures to make successful measurements of electrical quantities and by minimizing the amount of math calculations, are very accessible by beginners at either the college or work world level - though it's been developed from cou
This class-tested book gives you a familiarity with electricity and electronics as used in the modern world of measurement and control. This book is student centered. It will give you a measurement vocabulary along with an understanding of digital and analog meters, bridges, power supplies, solid state circuitry, oscilloscopes, and analog to digital conversions. This book is about behavior, not design, and thus lends itself to an easy-to-understand format over absolute technical perfection. Basic Electricity and Electronics for Control will enhance student success in any industrial or technical school setting where basic technician training is to take place.. The text uses a minimum of mathematics and where algebraic concepts are utilized there is sufficient explanation of the operation, so you may see the solution without actually performing the mathematical operations. It has been developed from course materials successfully used by the author in both a college setting and when presented as short course study classes by ISA. Th
