Fundamentals of Electrical Engineering is an excellent introduction into the areas of electricity, electronic devices and electrochemistry. The book covers aspects of electrical science including Ohm and Kirkoff's laws, P-N junctions, semiconductors, circuit diagrams, magnetic fields, electrochemistry, and devices such as DC motors. This text is useful for students of electrical, chemical, materials, and mechanical engineering.

This book describes intuitive analog design approaches using digital inverters, providing filter architectures and circuit techniques enabling high performance analog circuit design. The authors provide process, supply voltage and temperature (PVT) variation-tolerant design techniques for inverter based circuits. They also discuss various analog design techniques for lower technology nodes and lower power supply, which can be used for designing high performance systems-on-chip.

1m vorliegenden Bericht tiber Software-Fehlertoleranz und -Zuverlassigkeit wird ein Problemkreis aus dem weitgefacherten Themenkomplex der Fehlertoleranz in Rechensystemen aufgegriffen, der in den letzten Jahren zunehmend an Bedeutung und Interesse gewonnen hat. Wahrend in der Vergangenheit ein Schwerpunkt der Fehlertoleranz-Konzepte und -Realisierungen darin lag, die Zuverlassigkeit von Rechensystemen durch MaBnahmen gegen den Ausfall von Hardware-Komponenten zu erhohen, wachst zusehends der Be...

Reviews of the 1st edition include:- 'Once in a while, someone writes a technical book which becomes the definitive work or industry bible. John Watkinson has done just that with The Art of Digital Audio' - New Scientist 'Mr Watkinson's work commands pride of place amongst the publications on digital audio techniques.' - EBU Review '... a must for all radio engineers interested in complete digital fluency.' - Radio World 'It must be difficult writing a sequel to the Bible. Let's face...

The science and technology related to semiconductors have received significant attention for applications in various fields including microelectronics, nanophotonics, and biotechnologies. Understanding of semiconductors has advanced to such a level that we are now able to design novel system complexes before we go for the proof-of-principle experimental demonstration. This book explains the experimental setups for optical spectral analysis of semiconductors and describes the experimental method...

Until now, there hasn't been a book or learning resource that aimed to teach audio newbies and musicians how to set up and mix a live audio event. For years, they have had to learn about live audio through a frustrating and time-consuming process of trial and error or by watching others. LIVE SOUND FUNDAMENTALS provides the "missing manual" to the art of live sound, covering the topic from a real-world point of view, and deals with real problems and real solutions from the field. It is a solid h...

This book gathers selected papers presented at the conference "Advances in 3D Image and Graphics Representation, Analysis, Computing and Information Technology," one of the first initiatives devoted to the problems of 3D imaging in all contemporary scientific and application areas. The aim of the conference was to establish a platform for experts to combine their efforts and share their ideas in the related areas in order to promote and accelerate future development. This second volume discusses...

Piezoelectric Materials and Devices: Applications in Engineering and Medical Sciences provides a complete overview of piezoelectric materials, covering all aspects of the materials starting from fundamental concepts. The treatment includes physics of piezoelectric materials, their characteristics and applications. The author uses simple language to

Virtually Real A wave of new technology has rekindled the dream of virtual reality. But what can you really do with it? We take a look at how Makers are embracing VR to build digital worlds and real-life interfaces with them, and show you how too. Meet the engineers at NASA that are making rovers and rockets in mixed-reality. Discover some of the gear you'll need to get started with VR. Visit the Makers at Valve who brought the HTC Vive headset to life and see how it went from prototype to produ...

Proceedings of the 2012 International Conference on Electronics, Information and Communication Engineering (EICE 2012) that was held in Macau on March 1-2, 2012.

System design using advanced 32-bit microprocessors differs significantly from that used for earlier 8-bit devices. Here are practical, qualitative explanations of the architectures and uses of these processors, including RISC systems, dedicated AI processors, and parallel processing systems.

This book focuses on speech signal phenomena, presenting a robustification of the usual speech generation models with regard to the presumed types of excitation signals, which is equivalent to the introduction of a class of nonlinear models and the corresponding criterion functions for parameter estimation. Compared to the general class of nonlinear models, such as various neural networks, these models possess good properties of controlled complexity, the option of working in "online" mode, as w...
