The course also serves a wide variety of Ph.D. candidates in our engineering college. The text, with its laboratory exercises, not only introduces them to the fundamentals of experiment readout and a wide variety of circuits and techniques, but methodically introduces them to the common mistakes and oversimplifications typical of new designers. I was thrilled to see this new edition contains an entirely new set of chapters introducing students to professional-level use of a microcontroller development environment and real-time operating systems, that goes far beyond the very simple exercises typically found on public web sites and other resources. We used preliminary versions of these exercises in our spring 2024 lab course, and the students were immediately able to use what they learned in their own research.' Sarah C.

It defines a hands-on course, inviting the reader to try out the many circuits that it describes. Several new labs (on amplifiers and automatic gain control) have been added to the analog part of the book, which also sees an expanded treatment of meters. Many labs now have online supplements. The digital sections have been rebuilt. An FPGA replaces the less-capable programmable logic devices, and a powerful ARM microcontroller replaces the 8051 previously used. The new microcontroller allows for more complex programming (in C) and more sophisticated applications, including a lunar lander, a voice recorder, and a lullaby jukebox. A new section explores using an Integrated Development Environment to compile, download, and debug programs. Substantial new lab exercises, and their associated teaching material, have been added, including a project reflecting this edition's greater emphasis on programmable logic.
