An Introduction to Electronics

The aim of this book is to explain the design and function of electronic circuits and components. It covers electronic circuit components, DC analysis, and AC analysis, and provides readers with a broad overview of both the linear and digital fields of electronics while also providing the basics so they can understand the fundamentals of electronics.

It book is intended for first year students or users to stimulate their interest in electronics, whether they are in high school, college or the field, and will provide them with a fundamental background in electronics that they need to succeed in today's increasingly digital world. It continues to expose readers to the broad field of electronics at a level that they can easily understand.

It should be useful to beginner hobbyists as well as beginner engineering students, teaching both theory and practical applications.

It should be thought of as a companion project to the Wikipedia articles about electronics. While Wikipedia covers many details about the technology used in electronics components and related fields, the Electronics Wikibook covers a lot of the ”how-to” aspects that aren’t covered in an encyclopedia. The book will focus on how to use the components to build useful circuits.
