Opis

Electronic and Electrical Servicing provides a thorough grounding in the electronics and electrical principles required by service engineers servicing home entertainment equipment such as TVs, CD and DVD machines, as well as commercial equipment including PCs.In the printed book, this new edition covers all the core units of the Level 2 Progression Award in Electrical and Electronics Servicing (Consumer/Commercial Electronics) from City & Guilds (C&G 6958), plus two of the option units. For those students who wish to progress to Level 3, a further set of chapters covering all the core units at this level is available as a free download from the book's companion website or as a print-on-demand book. The book and website material also offer a fully up-to-date course text for the City & Guilds 1687 NVQs at Levels 2 and 3.The book contains numerous worked examples to help students grasp the principles. Each chapter ends with review questions, for which answers are provided at the end of the book, so that students can check their learning.Level 2 units covered in the book: Unit 1 - d.c. technology, components and circuitsUnit 2 - a.c. technology and electronic componentsUnit 3 - Electronic devices and testingUnit 4 - Electronic systemsUnit 5 - Digital electronicsUnit 6 - Radio and television systems technologyUnit 8 - PC technologyIan Sinclair has been an author of market-leading books for electronic servicing courses for over 20 years, helping many thousands of students through their college course and NVQs into successful careers. Now with a new co-author, John Dunton, the new edition has been brought fully up-to-date to reflect the most recent technical advances and developments within the service engineering industry, in particular with regard to television and PC servicing and technology.Level 3 units covered in free downloads at http: //books.elsevier.com/companions/9780750669887: Unit 1 - Electronic principlesUnit 2 - Test and measurementUnit 3 - Analogue electronicsUnit 4 - Digital electronics

Recenzje

Mike James: 'It seems very well matched to the level 2 progression award. The style of writing is very lucid and the layout is easy on the eye. It is a very broad syllabus which manages to have every element mentioned in the book. There is a lot of material on health and safety which correctly reflects the amount of work required in the units.'

...this text gives a thorough grounding in the electronics and electrical principles required by service engineers. -Poptronics, July 2002
