From the Publisher:
A new full-color edition of this widely-adopted best-seller...one that emphasizes analytical reasoning skills and basic digital design using industry-standard ICs. Students learn the practical skills they need to design and troubleshoot the digital circuitry they will face on the job. The author uses actual industry integrated circuits to demonstrate circuit operations, and a solid step-by-step progression is made from fundamentals through more complicated topics. Emphasis is on the basics of circuit design, so that students, knowing the foundational building blocks, can then teach themselves new technology as it appears. Numerous digital system design applications and troubleshooting exercises are provided, along with ample illustrations, examples, and review questions. Additionally, laboratory exercises can be created by having students build, test, debug, and analyze the operation of any of the text's examples.
From the Back Cover:
KLEITZ, Digital Electronics: A Practical Approach, 5/E*/ Providing readers with the skills and know-how necessary to successfully function in today's modern digital electronics field, this best-selling, full-color guide stresses the importance of analytical reasoning skills and basic digital design using industry-standard ICs. Guiding users through a clear, step-by-step progression of the practical skills they will need to design and troubleshoot digital circuitry on the job, it provides a solid foundation in the basics of circuit design so that users can then teach themselves new technology as it appears. Presents standard integrated circuits used in the industry today to demonstrate circuit operations, with a steady progression from fundamentals to more complicated topics. Uses timing waveforms to help users learn how to interpret waveforms that they will encounter on the job when using oscilloscopes and logic analyzers. Develops and sharpens analytical reasoning skills with a wealth of features, including schematic interpretation problems; 200 marginal annotations that point out common misconceptions, team discussions and helpful hints; design problems; troubleshooting problems; and more challenging problems that require readers to develop strategies and solve problems beyond the level of those used in the over 200, fully worked-out examples provided. Presented in four-color with over 1,000 detailed illustrations, it offers sections on such cutting-edge technology as Surface Mounted Devices and on Low-Voltage (74LV) integrated circuits. Now includes new circuit operational notes to clarify illustrations and provide quick insight into circuit operation, plus offers practical Electronics Workbench exercises that provide computer simulation of troubleshooting and design of digital circuits.
