The Nile on eBay Practical Analog, Digital, and Embedded Electronics for Scientists by Brett D. DePaola
This book provides an integrated lecture and laboratory course in electronics for science students. It is an integrated textbook and laboratory manual on analog, digital, and embedded electronics for science students with emphasis on understanding how to use the various circuit elements in a practical way.
FORMATHardcover CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description
This book is different to other electronics texts available. First, it is short. Created for a one-semester course taken by physics students, both undergraduate and graduate it includes only the essentials and covers those topics only as deeply as needed in order to understand the material in the integrated laboratory exercises. Unlike many electronics texts for physics students, this one does not delve into the physics of devices. Instead, these are largely treated as black boxes having certain properties that are important to know for designing circuits. The physics comes when the students use their acquired electronics instrumentation knowledge to construct apparatus to make measurements. Since the detailed physics has been left out, this book should be equally useful for students in any of the physical or life sciences. This is the first textbook aimed at the non-electrical engineering student, that has both the generality on analog and digital electronics circuits, coupled to the very timely technology of embedded electronics. The book also features homework exercises, parts list and a suite of useful appendices.Key FeaturesCombined lectures and laboratory courseCovers analog and digital electronicsIncludes embedded systemsHomework problems with solutionsComplete inventory of required components
Author Biography
Brett D DePaola is a Professor of physics at Kansas State University. He received his BS and MS in physics from Miami University, and his PhD in physics from The University of Texas at Dallas. DePaola's research in atomic, molecular, and optical physics covers a wide range of topics, from ion-atom collisions to coherent control using ultra-short laser pulses. The over-arching theme is the understanding of basic physical processes at the atomic level. His most recent research explores how modulating the spectral phase of ultra-short laser pulses affects coherent excitation in atoms and simple molecules. DePaola has made seminal contributions to the measurement technique known as MOTRIMS, he is a Fellow of the American Physical Society and has won numerous teaching awards as well as given invited lectures worldwide.

Review
"The topics covered allow the course to build from simple circuits that the students may well already understand, through to measurements using embedded systems while covering a broad range of 'useful' circuits along the way. Key strengths are that it covers only what is required to enable understanding and utilisation of practical electronics for physical sciences. Employing user-friendly open-source microcontroller/computer platform to explore embedded systems is very useful; data acquisition into a computer is no longer a 'black box' for the students."
