This book - the third in a series of technician level books from Lenk - covers both "how it works" and "how to service it" aspects of all types of laser based audio and video equipment. Compact-disk (CD), laser video (LV), and CD-ROM are all thoroughly covered. It is an essential desktop guide for audio and video technicians, hobbyists, and students everywhere. It is a volume in the "Consumer Electronic" series.
Bridging the gap between theoretical engineering texts and bare-bones service manual, this work covers basic operation, design and troubleshooting aspects of all types of radio-frequency (RF) equipment. Contents include RF amplifier types, frequency mixers and converters, digital tuning for RF voltage amplifiers, procedures for measuring the resonant frequency of LC circuits, the inductance of a coil, transmitter modulation, receiver sensitivity, techniques for localizing trouble in RF circuits, digital tuner troubleshooting and a guide to symptoms and remedies. The book should prove useful to radio technicians, engineers, hobbyists and students.
Aimed at technicians or field-service engineers programmers and analysts who need to know more about digital hardware, students and hobbyists, this book gives technically complete descriptions of how digital electronic devices operate. It concentrates on basic approaches to digital testing and troubleshooting that work with any kind of digital equipment or system, existing or envisioned. Included are chapters on: digital numbers and codes; basic digital logic; typical digital IC and discrete circuits; microprocessors; digital test equipment; digital troubleshooting; classic examples and advanced techniques of troubleshooting; troubleshooting microprocessor-based devices and digital TV circuits.
Filling the gap between complex theoretical texts on audio circuitry and the bare-bones service literature, this universal reference is for audio service technicians, field-service engineers, and advanced hobbyists. It contains practical know-how needed to service consumer audio products, provides step-by-step, circuit-by-circuit troubleshooting examples, and gives readers the background necessary to understand and apply audio theory. Lenk covers all types of popular audio equipment: amplifiers, tuners, CD players, cassette players, and surround-sound systems, as well as audio circuitry in camcorders, TVs and VCRs.
