Beginner's Guide to Reading Schematics Book

Discusses the symbols used in electronic schematic diagrams and explains how to interpret, draw, and use schematic diagrams.

Understanding schematics can save you time and money and make any electronics task easier to accomplish. Unfortunately, many people mistakenly view reading schematic diagrams as complex and difficult. But as Traister and Lisk explain in this practical guide, learning to interpret the symbols, component designations and interconnection, found on most schematic diagrams can actually be quite simple.

The Beginner's Guide to Reading Schematics - 2nd Edition takes you step by step through every phase of understanding and using electronic circuit diagrams or schematics. Discover which symbols stand for:

• Capacitors
• Resistors
• Inductors
• Transformers
• Switches
• Conductors
• Cables
• Batteries
• Vacuum Tubes

...and much more! You'll also find out how these symbols work together, how to read symbol combinations, and even how to draw your own schematics. Plus, the authors include an index of symbols, many of which were not featured in the first edition.
