Book Description

A systematic theory of DIY electronic culture, drawn from a century of artists who have independently built creative technologies.

Since the rise of Arduino and 3D printing in the mid-2000s, do-it-yourself approaches to the creative exploration of technology have surged in popularity. But the maker movement is not new: it is a historically significant practice in contemporary art and design.

This book documents, tracks, and identifies a hundred years of innovative DIY technology practices, illustrating how the maker movement is a continuation of a long-standing creative electronic subculture.

• A Pragmatic Introduction to the Art of Electrical Engineering

  This book provides a solid overview of the electrical engineering discipline that is especially geared toward the many non-electrical engineering students. It uses of practical applications to illustrate important principles.

• Semiconductor Devices: Theory and Application (James M. Fiore)

  Covers the theory and application of discrete semiconductor devices including various types of diodes, bipolar junction transistors, JFETs, MOSFETs and IGBTs. Applications include rectifying, clipping, clamping, switching, small signal amplifiers and followers.

• Principles of Semiconductor Devices (Bart Van Zeghbroeck)

  The purpose of this textbook is to explore the internal behavior of semiconductor devices, so that we can understand the relation between the device geometry and material parameters on one hand and the resulting electrical characteristics on the other hand.

• Understanding Electronics Components (Filipovic D. Miomir)

  This book is meant for those people who want to create electronic devices with their own hands. All components are illustrated and the circuit-symbol is explained in detail. Both simple and complex examples are provided for the beginners.

• Probability in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS)

  This textbook motivates and illustrates the techniques of applied probability by applications in electrical engineering and computer science (EECS). Python labs enable the readers to experiment and consolidate their understanding.

• Electrical Circuit Analysis (Jim Pytel)

  This book has been written for students on electrical engineering courses who don't necessarily possess prior knowledge of electrical circuits, based on the author's own teaching experience.

• Lessons in Electric Circuits (Tony R. Kuphaldt)

  A 6 volumes series of textbooks on the subjects of electricity and electronics. This book was written to be a good enough book without delving too heavy on the math, while still maintaining a lot of important information.

• DC Electrical Circuit Analysis: A Practical Approach (James Fiore)

  Basic concepts are introduced such as charge, current, energy, power and voltage. Covering analysis techniques such as superposition, source conversions, mesh analysis, nodal analysis, , Thévenin's and Norton's theorems, and delta-wye conversions, etc.

• AC Electrical Circuit Analysis: A Practical Approach (James Fiore)

  Cover topics including series, parallel, and series-parallel RLC circuits. Numerous theorems and analysis techniques are examined including superposition, Thévenin's theorem, nodal and mesh analysis, maximum power transfer and more.

• Operational Amplifiers and Linear Integrated Circuits

  This book offers an extensive and detailed exploration of the modern op amp and associated specialized linear integrated circuits. The exploration begins with a fundamental building building block, the differential amplifier.

• An Introduction to Electronics (WikiBooks)

  The aim of this book is to explain the design and function of electronic circuits and components. It covers electronic circuit components, DC analysis, and AC analysis, and provides readers with a broad overview of both the linear and digital fields of electronics.

• Designing Analog Chips (Hans Camenzind)

  A comprehensive introduction to CMOS and bipolar analog IC design. The book presumes no prior knowledge of linear design, making it comprehensible to engineers with a non-analog background.
