If you're scrounging through scrap in a post-apocalyptic landscape, this textbook would be my Book of Eli.
@@noahmcdonald686 well said
The only electronics book i ever fall in love, Its indeed for practical electronics. Those who wants to be a electronics hardware design expert not a electronics literature this book is recommended.
Is there any pre requisite or first timer will understand most concepts?
@@dark_lord98 There is no pre requisites though but the book isnt complete to grasp every concept clearly. You need some extensions, other books but you should definitely watch some video tutorials to grasp the concept more accurately.

Read the book and watch the tuts side by side.
@@dark_lord98 It is self contained. You will only need to look elsewhere if you want to derive expressions found in the book, since the book only presents the formulas.
What do you mean by "electronics literature"?
@@invent0r137 Academics Research paper publisher who doesn't have any hand on experience on hardware design
As a total newb, I am also enjoying "How to Diagnose and Fix Everything Electronic" as it talks mainl about the author's real life experiences based comments and info. This book seems to cover the basics much better and could serve as a reference book. Thanks!
It's not (just) what people know about, it's whether they decide to take the initiative to do anything with it.
I've had this book on my shelf for years, and am yet to dive deep into it. One day... 😅
i dont understand why we are not taught this kind of stuff from the earliest age possible
My parents introduced me to electronics and medical kits and biology and chemistry very early on
Dude most people hate science and math. Teach us something useful in the world not algebra and physics is what most say during basic trig or science class in middle and high school, And you think without math and physics we can understand electronics lol. People who like these things are still in the minority.
@potato-yx5te u r right
There are too many reasons! The easy guess, 1) not all ppl want others to be smarter than them and, in general, 2) not all ppl are familiar with knowledge, unless they have grown and became savvy. My dad lack all the knowledge I have got now (which is NOT a great thing) but he led me to achieve all the stuff, the means, studies and experiences he facilitated, because he was smart, yet not well-educated (since grandma also lacked university degree, as millions who grew from poverty and other limitations). Most ppl work to get food, housing and clothing (we're all compelled to that) but the 2nd generation has always being blessed with the HARD job of their predecessors, and FEW are thankful for the means God has given all us.
I got this book a while back, excellent intro and got me excited for electronics, and I’m now pursuing EE in college, I got this book under my bed, for when I need it, it’s golden, I reccomend it to others
Awesome
Glad you added "to others" at the end, or else...
EE one of the hardest and stressful. But good luck
How do I get this book?
If it wasn't because of you, I never knew there were other ways to get that BLESSING of holy grail of PDF (1056 pages). Thanks YOU a lot!
The Navy Electricity and Electronics Training series is free and very easy to follow.
Where should I look, will try google and Ebay.
@@DennisMurphey Did you find it?
@@superguitar6355 maritime.org/doc/neets/mod01.pdf
@@undernetjack I think it is quite bad. I had a student who took it about a decade ago,
and was conceptually lost. It is weirdly superficial and dogmatic, more about repair than creation.
Also, out of date. If you are using big analog circuits, quit and use a board computer like an RPi or ESP32. If you want to design custom chips, you will need considerable training time or AI. I’d outsource it. For medium sized projects the design software will optimize for price and power consumption better than most humans.
Art of electronics is more-so a bible for electronic *circuits*, both simple and more complex. It also deals with all the edge-cases and practicalities of real-world components a lot, rather than just their idealised theoretical versions (although you can't understand the practicalities without having some understanding of the theory underpinning first!). It's a good companion to this one.
Linear regulators are definitely still on the market! Switching regulators tend be very problematic for low noise electronics.
Sounds like a great book… yes to learn electronics properly, you need to read, ask questions from EXPERIENCED people.., listen, experiment, make mistakes except hurt yourself but then the odd shock often serves as a good reminder but don’t go seeking them!!!
Haven't had an electronics project in years. Keep telling myself I'll make something like a guitar pedal or small robot but kept remembering that I forgot how to read circuits. I think this is the motivation to relearn and do them, cheers for sharing this
You'll enjoy yourself! I gave up many of the paper books of electronic I had. Now I will have new ones, online.
Good review, I like how you flicked through the pages and paused on interesting parts. I have a good idea now this book would be a good reference to have on my shelf. I am technician from the 80’s. I studied most nights for many years back then but lost a lot of those skills, now a hobbiest I want to develop a much more in depth understanding. This will be a great retirement hobby for me and I am sure many others.
This looks fascinating. I have a math and physics background but I find myself becoming more interested in electronics.
I prefer practical electronics over the art of electronics, it’s more straightforward and readable.
Also, The Theory and Servicing of AM, FM, and FM Stereo Receivers by Clarence Green and Robert Bourque is a great book.
Oh thanks for the tip about the radio book
Thank you for this insightful review. Your thorough analysis of the electronic books’ features and benefits is greatly appreciated. It provides valuable guidance for those of us looking to make informed decisions on our next read. Well done.
Aaaaaaand another book joins my wishlist, thanks again.
I learned more from the Art of Electronics book than I ever did in my degree course, it's brilliant. It made me realise that theoretical and practical electronics are almost two different disciplines! This book looks even better for the practical side...it's on my wishlist now. Thanks for the headz up...might be good Karma btw. 🤐
Just ordered my copy. Thanks for the recommendation!
Best book 🎉
How come you have such a wide range of expertise . Physics , electronics and musical instruments .
Well whether its music, electronics, or aviation its all centered around physics. So while I have background in many different areas they all have the same center.
I have this book and it is a brilliant piece of work. It’s like the Machinerys handbook for electronics.
This is seriously an insane good book. Im not even an EE but its amazing. Bought it Barnes amd Nobles too - they almost never have good technical books
ARRL handbooks are pretty versatile. If you want to get in depth, the electronic engineers handbook is the one. About 2000 pages
Got a link or cover Pic?
At 29:17 the c2 capacitor is inverted. and c6 also.
@@Leandro_ yes good catch!
The Art of Electronics by Paul Horowitz is my favorite book. But this looks like a great book as well
That book is excellent and one of my favorite. Microelectronics by Beaman is another one, a bit classic though.
I have AoE in all possible editions, that's all you need :)
@@iz8dwf Is AoE exhaustive? It doesn't contain chapter on ICs, and SoCs currently used in market.
@@kumardigvijaymishra5945 Yes, it contains chapters on computers, IC's and microcontrollers. I haven't seen SoC's, though.
5:26 It has tubes.. Yes! This's my kind of electronics book. Thanls for posting this!
Ach I thought you wrote 'nudes'! What a disappointment, I want my money back!
Hello, thank you for reviewing it. Recently i received this book, and was "surprised" with price for shipment to Ukraine. And when i had it in my hands i realized its dimensions and weight. But the content is great. Thank you.
The One and Only
Awesome! What an incredible trip. I’d love to ship from Halifax to Iceland then ferry to the Faroe Islands someday
Thank You
I had a carbon copy of this book like 20 yrs ago. 😄 Very enjoyable read. It is easy for beginner to comprehend partical side of electronics components and how to assemble them into something useful or even amazing (limited by your imagination and depth of pocket only 😂). If you study physics in depth during high school (with all the math of circuits, ohm's law, calc of cap and impedance, derviation of formula, etc), its content is really easy to grasp and acting as a stepping stone from formula, theories to practical products (or little projects to amaze your friends 😁). The only thing it is lacking:how to “flash” or UV-etch your own copper line PCB with chemicals & transparent sheets printed with B/W laser printer and How to use software to route yoir circuit properly.
Note:Not sure if they include the missing pieces in later editions. It was 20yrs ago after all.
I bought that book a while back. Truely covers everything. Love it
Yep 78 series regs are still on the menu and still delicious if baked into the circuit correctly, Mmmm ! we are not exactly talking about nostalgia here as the PWM based power supply's you describe are 'switched mode' the good old 7805 however is part of a linear supply and is far and away better if you want a low noise environment for example audio.
I have an older edition, and I would happily buy newer editions. I just haven't managed to buy an update because of an ongoing illness. But even the older edition is a great book - it just seems to have comments on things you might not expect to find in it but suddenly find yourself needing that thing. It gives you just enough on little advanced things and solid background and reference materials, all with atypically good exposition and takes sensible positions on issues other texts might avoid (like tubes, as you mention - among many other things). It is really well outlined and realized. Hard to complain about this choice: it is a gem among practical introductions for people who want to get to grips with electronics in a hurry to do real work.
I have pdf, if you need let me know
Thanks from Brasil that's all i need!
This is the good stuff. Despite being in middle school when I read it, I was able to absorb plenty of knowledge from this book. It is good because you can start from a range of different backgrounds, and still learn from it. For instance, in the early parts for much of the theory they give you the big fancy calculus but also explain things such that you can understand the concepts without having even taken trig.
Love it, added it to my amazon list, i have read several books on basic electronics, but this one i perfect for the amateur inventor like me. Larry
Thanks so much for suggesting this book. I thought I had every good resource but after watching this video and buying this book it is my favorite.
Bought this in '21. It gives me comfort. Worth the price and not even a high price to pay.
Picked this up at Goodwill about 10 years ago.
I had the free pdf of the book, but bought a physical copy because of how good it was. And I got tired of reading off a computer screen.
Hey, im in a bit of a dilema. Would you say its okay to download those free pdfs? I would buy physycial copy but i dont live in the USA, and I don't have resources to buy the e book version. I was thinking about contacting authors. Would you say it is okay to download the free version. I do really feel bad and like im stealing someone's hard work so I'd like to hear your and possibly other people's opinion.
@@turnoff7572 One of the beauties of the internet is you can learn anything you want for free most of the time, if you can find it. It's better to support the authors obviously, but if you're limited on resources, learn for free and then go make the world a better place to pay it back.
@@turnoff7572 where are you from?
@@turnoff7572download the pdf, buy the book if you ever get a chance, better than not reading it at all
@@turnoff7572 Just downloaded the pdf you're not robbing anyone
The US Navy basic electricity book is pretty comprehensive as well.
which book is that?
Great book. Thank you!
Almost 5 mins of praise without even the first reason why you need this book.
He uses it as a reference book, because it contains both electronic examples & physics explanations.
This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you for sharing this awesome book.
I would call The Art of Electronics as the holy grail.
Glad to hear that, just purchased it to brush up. I worked as a marine electronics technician after doing a radio mechanic apprenticeship back in the 80’s, now i want to get back into it for a hobby. It’s taking some time to build my workshop, and so far the book looks good. Probably all I need for now, also have books on raspberry pi and python, can’t get into electronics these days without microcomputer and python knowledge.
I like your energy homie! I'll check out this book! Glad to hear, even just (the) voice of anoda...
I would recommend if I may since I had a similar problem until recently, try some Nivea cream on your hands. The big one which comes in an aluminum can. You'll notice the effects from the first day.
@@caferockgarito3310 it's glue
Oh ok no worries then 😅
There are some good free books by Jim Fiore on operational amplifiers etc.
Love this book!!! Found it a b&n 20+ years ago while in EE college degree.
The best I’ve ever owned. Only book I’ve ever recommended to strangers before.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Respect the honesty.
Found this book lying around in my physics lab ajd have started learning electronics from it
Lmao, I suck at math and engineering - really bad - but I've always wanted to understand it. I will, one day, and I bought this tome in Barnes and Noble like 8 years ago just because I could. Glad to see this
Same regarding math and algebra. I could do the work but I just never 'got' it. I couldn't hold onto it because for some reason my brain needs to map it visually and correlate it to something to make stick. I never could find the something, I guess.
Same. I have owned the third edition of this book for years, but I barely touched it as the mathematics was beyond me. I've been slowly brushing up on my maths with the likes of Khan Academy and Brilliant, but at heart I'm just an idiot who aspires to be a savant. 😁
@@rfphillMe too. As I mentioned to OP I've been trying to brush up on my maths online, I recommend it. My problem is I may learn something and finally get that 'lightbulb moment', only to come back to it not long after and find I've already forgotten it.
I think the trick is to grasp the concept, move on and only aspire to truly memorise the stuff that we actually intend on applying. If I figure out calculus then great, but I'm pretty sure it's possible to get an understanding for amplifier circuits without it. At this stage of life I don't plan on carving out a path as an electronics engineer, just enough knowledge to tinker and (at least somewhat) know what I'm doing.
I own this book, I’ll have to really dive into it
I have never heard of these books in my country, thanks man
Thanks for the tip! I'm going to take a look at this. Looks like a great companion to the ARRL Handbook. Subscribed!
I’m a professional inventor who has licensed patents and there is no equal to t Scherz and Monk. Physicists teach electronics better than engineers.
What path did you take to become a professional inventor? Do you have any good book recommendations?
@@louvoodoo Unusual. I was to be an academic and did a double PhD program in computational neuroscience and philosophy. I do scientific philosophy. Since childhood I also had many invention ideas. And as I learned more science several a week. List is about 1,500 (some duplications, some invented by others). As an academic I did scientific philosophy with practical applications including font enhancing techniques (used by Apple, I did not patent) and in 2000 a version of Uber for the city of San Diego. Then I developed two health problems including a rare, deadly heart disease and had to leave ABD with a CPhil. I was sick for a decade. And inventing turned out to be best path. And I had some luck with an early patent,
but bad luck before I got a better grasp of the system. I avoid VCs and know a lot of science as neuroscience attracts polymaths because it requires lots of science to explore brain. So my physicist, biology, computer science including of course AI is strong, chemistry passable, applied math good (and really most of what I do).
Read:
Patent it Yourself
Read many patents in your area
Understand claims and write claims first then the specification.
Use AI to augment powers.
Beware of anything that is manufactured. If not already basically just a matter of assembly you need $2m.
Patent writing is hard.
I would now advise people
to become patent agents and take the exam.
The poor and middle
class have no money. Focus on B2B and luxury.
Be paranoid. But still tak to other inventors.
Learn drop shipping.
Read licensing contracts.
Study semiotics and influence or sales books. Cialdini is the best. Then Heath brothers.
Understand everything yourself. Eventually delegate. But this is hard. No one is better than me so far at key stuff.
Learn to ramify an invention. This takes most of the creative time, often first use idea is not most profitable.
Finally Edison is wrong in turns of time, it is worse
than he said,O.1% inspiration and 99.9% perspiration. Don’t let VCs tell you this Edison ratio reflects the value of the two acts.
Good luck, and don’t quit your day job.
@@louvoodoo I gave a lengthy reply and YT seems to have deleted it. Not sure how I could have violated a rule.
@@JJ-fr2ki I am so sorry that they deleted it. I have electronics and mechanical engineering background, I just need to figure out a good idea to bring to life
@@louvoodoo It’s crazy and irritating. It was detailed for a phone typed bit and I wanted to send it to my nephew.
Read the Nolo Book Patent It Yourself. Note manufacturing rather than assembling from existing parts catalogs via dropshipping companies for anything electromechanical is >$2m. Be market oriented. B2B and luxury have much more money than other classes. Demos important now. Provisional Patent often (only $70). Search well eventhough hard on the heart. And learn to ramify. Use AI as much as possible to save time. Writing patents is difficult. Use lawyer for claims until very confident. I’d also now recommend the Patent Agent Exam, because I think AIs will clog the system. Beware of Alice if patenting software.
Four minutes of explaining his feelings over this book and I am sold like a mf.
I've been thinking about learning about electronics lately, and for some reason this video popped up in my feed. I ordered the book, it looks great!
Thank you 🙏
The engineering book from Cuba is also one of the best
Only read through the first bit so far, but it is a very comprehensive book.
the book is focused on building up your understanding of the basics and the practical aspects of electronics. Its not so much about the circuits. I think if you want to learn more about the circuits, the art of electronics is much better. Personally, I think this book is more digestible to a new(ish)/intermediate electronics hobbyist. The art of electronics is probably a bit more advanced.
I'm a newbie and you are right - this book is more digestible for us newbies. Both are great though.
@@scottfoulk7480 They are! Another book i recommend if you are really new is forrest mims getting started with electronics. Back to the AOE, the good thing about the art of electronics is that it comes with a hands-on lab book as well as the main book. The hands-on lab course is especially helpful and goes over more topics than any other lab course book I have seen. In my opinion, I think the hands-on lab course will be where 80% of your understanding will come from. A good portion of the labs can be done if you buy an all in one tool from analog devices called AD2. The AD2 is multiple lab tools (oscilloscope, signal generator, logic analyzer, multimeter etc) built into one. It has its limitations of course but it performs well and can be a great place to start (especially if the typical lab bench tools are out of your price budget).
Another big plus I see in the AOE is their recommendation for parts like transistors, PLL, VCO, dc-dc converters and so on. The recommendations are so numerous that if you needed a part for almost any application, they probably list it in the chapter that describes the theory for that part (i.e a transistor if you are studying transistors). This saves so much time in searching through the internet and going through dozens of data sheets. circuits Text books don't normally list components that are in the market. they cover the theory but they don't really talk about the components by their parts numbers and specs per se.
@krlabs5472 thanks for sharing! Analog Dad here getting into electronics with my daughter- thank you for the reference and review- I am tired of finding arduino and raspberry stuff- I want to build from scratch. Not a musician, but I can certainly appreciate your taste, flavor and the G# vid is great (daughter is in piano so it matched up with a topic she needed!)

That's an excellent book. I really wish there was a hardcover option.
Thanks for posting this! I got “into” electronics as more than a user earlier this year with becoming an Amateur Radio operator….Ham.

I have the third edition of this book. I also recommend the book "How to Diagnose and Fix Everything Electronic" by Michael J. Greier.
Let me share with you my experience. About 30 years ago I had a similar book. Got me hooked. I have now invented over a 100 solutions for customers. Nowadays customers just ring me up to get info on how I would solve their problem and then they go off to cheap china products that will do the same. Although they need 3 times the hardware and pay double and it it ends up in a botched solution, they are too proud to admit that my solution was more cost effectictive at the end of the day. That's why I'm now broke and broken.
