My New Textbook

Just a quick note to  you who follow this blog.  McGraw Hill just published my new electronics textbook.  The title is Contemporary Electronics:  Fundamentals, Devices, Circuits and Systems.  It is the first textbook to cover the systems approach, at least that I know of.  The book is designed for 2-year AAS degree programs.  Here are some of the key features:
  • Covers 3 courses, DC, AC and Semiconductor devices and basic linear circuits
  • 3 Chapters on troubleshooting.
  • 2 system chapters
  • System sidebars: chapter supplements with new and related materials
  • Applications emphasis.
  • Test bank and Power Points
  • Matching lab manual.
If you are looking for a new text, take a look.  Go to www.mhhe.com/frenzel1e for details.  And you can get a review copy from your MH rep.

I will be in Houston at the Texas Community College Teachers Association annual meeting Friday, February 22 at 1 pm. I will be speaking to the Electronics group and will give away a copy of the book.  Then I will be at the MH booth if  you want to say hello and see the book.

Hope to see you there but if not at least take a look at the book and give me your feedback.
