Foundations Of Analog and Digital Electronic Circuits by Anant Agarwal

by Anant Agarwal

This landmark text presents the circuits foundations common to both the digital and analog domains, combining circuits and electronics into a single, unified treatment and establishing a strong connection with the contemporary world of digital systems. Developed at MIT to support a radical departure in how these disciplines are taught and perceived, the text seamlessly bridges physics, electronics, and computation. The insights the authors have gleaned over many years in developing and teaching the course are exactly attuned to the complex digital/analog requirements faced by contemporary designers.

This is an excellent, excellent textbook. The integration of analog and digital theory from the very beginning is outstanding.

I held back from giving it 5 stars because there's a lot of content that is web-only.... I'd rather have it all in one place and offline.

I liked this book, yet sometimes some topics were explained in rather complicated way. Strongly recommend it together with a three parts course on electronics in from MIT (they’re presented on the edx website), that was made by the author of this book and that guideline through the contents of the book with deeper comprehension than just reading alone.

3rd year textbook on electronics

[Salim Elzwawi · Rating 3 out of 5]

I have read many introductory electronics books over the years and have also taught electronics for a few years. I think this book is the most overrated of these books. It is a good book, but it isn't an excellent book.

Not nearly enough practice problems for classroom use.

Good textbook. Wish the notation for source types wasn't so confusing. Va/vA/VA/va -> like cmon.

I find this book really amazing. The way that the author explains is so clear, and the book covers a lot of things in the area of circuit design.
