This volume presents the fundamentals of current consumer electronic equipment. Brought to life through hands-on projects and a systems-level view, this book introduces the inner workings of TV, audio, satellite, radio, wireless communication, and networking. After a brief introduction to simple circuit components like capacitors, resistors, transformers and a little about Ohms Law, the author takes the reader on a journey through everything from integrated digital logic circuits, power supplies, computers, to cell phones, antennas, and satellites, to wireless networks, LANS and WANS, and audio and video and industrial control technology
