SELF HELP BOOKS SOLVE DESIGN PROBLEMS

SELF HELP BOOKS SOLVE DESIGN PROBLEMS

(OP)
I am looking for a decent self help book, preferably with lots of design problems and solutions.  In the area of circuiting using by-polar transistors, FET,  OP-AMPS, and Digital Circuits etc. This is my line of interest and also I want to use this to prepare for Professional Licensing exam for engineers.  I would greatly appreciate if someone can suggest a great book or a web-site for me to improve my design problem solving ability.  Thanking in advance.

RE: SELF HELP BOOKS SOLVE DESIGN PROBLEMS

I don’t know if such a thing exists. Horowitz and Hill (The Art of Electronics) is a pretty good book covering all of the areas you mention. Other than that books get pretty specialised on EMC, noise, RF etc. I have yet to see a decent book that delves into the practical aspects of design from a practising engineer’s point of view.

RE: SELF HELP BOOKS SOLVE DESIGN PROBLEMS

There are a series of books titled "The Electronics Problem Solver" with example circuit problems and the work-out of the solution. I have a used copy of this book. A quick flip through it shows lots of problems with transistor FET and op-amp circuits with bias, gain, saturation, CMRR problems and the like.

A quick check on Amazon showed the first book in a new edition, plus books like "3,000 Solved Problems in Electrical Circuits", and the various books in the Schaum's Outline series. A quick check on Amazon for "PE" and "EIT" resulted in plenty of prep books for these tests.
