This book shows you how to assemble an efficient working home lab inexpensively and how to make it pay for itself through years of growth and use. Includes many projects for creating your own... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I absolutely loved this book. Clement S. Pepper will appeal to anyone that loves working in their own lab, experimenting with electronic parts or building electronic kits. If you have learned something about electronics, soldering, and assembly work, you will really find the information here useful. The first half of the book contains detailed information on building power supplies, digital panel meters, frequency counters, timers, function generators, battery monitors, etc. The second half contains component descriptions, technical data, and application notes for diodes, transistors, LED's, IC's, etc. That's enough to make this book a useful reference even after you have built your dream lab. I especially like the forward and first chapter of the book. I wish Clement had written this book back when I was a kid! If you are just getting started in electronics, I RECOMMEND YOU BUY THIS BOOK, but you should also purchase some basic electronics theory books and electronic assembly manuals. You will need to know something about circuits, soldering, instrumentation, hand tools etc. to really get the most enjoyment from your new hobby.
