Question

Arduino

Suggest good literature on electronics (mostly digital) for beginners?
So far, I have selected the following literature on electronics (mostly digital) for beginners:
1. Electronics for beginners. Charles Platt.
2. Radio electronics for dummies. McComb, Boysen.
3. Entertaining microelectronics. Yuri Revich
4. Entertaining electronics. Yuri Revich. (2.3 editions).
I also heard that there are books
by A.) Swallow. "Electronics step by step"
B.) Atanas and Shishkov. "The first steps in radio electronics"
V.) Borisov. "Young radio amateur"
G.) Electronics for beginners and not only. Bessonov.
D.) Radio engineering. Stallions.
E.) The art of circuitry. Khorovets and Hill.
But I haven't seen them - is it worth reading them?
What else can you advise - only that they be simple, not boring, explain everything intelligibly and clearly, better in Russian (or translated into Russian), be for beginners and with pictures?

Answer 1

By far the best there is is Charles Platt, Electronics for Beginners. Step by step, accessible, a lot of examples, with pictures and everything on a modern base, with LEDs and transistors that you can buy in the nearest store.
Swine - very, very good, but too outdated. The entire elemental base on which his examples are built is not available for sale, and without practice there is little sense.

Answer 2

When I was studying, a very worthy book was Horowitz Hill's The Art of Circuitry.

Answer 3

Swine - I approve.
In general, if you want everything to be simple, not boring, intelligible and understandable, then you can generally try to choose another area right away, because in electronics, especially digital, it will always be tedious, incomprehensible, difficult and long. Read one book and understand everything - what textbook did you read at school and understood EVERYTHING the first time?
And school textbooks are not even designed for beginners.

Answer 4

Hello, Kitaev Yu.V. - Fundamentals of digital technology.

Answer 5

All books from 1930 to 1989.
Borisov VG Young radio amateur 1985, 1987
1985 in it all circuits on lamps, for 1987 all circuits on transistors, the explanation is simple.

All magazines 1930 to 2017 Young Technician, Modeller Constructor, Radio, Radio Amateur, etc.
I won’t say anything about new books, because I don’t x .. I recommend assembling the first circuit - a duck quack
imitator Radio magazine Radio magazine 1988 No. 6
regular Atmega microcontroller for $15

If you think old books and magazines are shit, then ask yourself why the Chinese love them so much.
Start right away with microcontrollers, there will be no general understanding of how everything works.

Answer 6

What is not written in assembler is soldered with a soldering iron)))

Answer 7

see David and Sarah Harris "Digital Circuitry and Computer Architecture"

Answer 8

E) HiH - definitely worth reading. Just a new edition a couple of years ago came out. There is about transistors, op-amps, low-noise circuitry, logic elements, FPGAs, microcontrollers.
You can also look for an old book by Tokheim. One about computers, the second about logical elements. XZ, if they are in electronic libraries, you can search.
Harris was recommended above - also norms. I, alas, niasilil, but what I managed to do is very easy to read. (It's a pity that there are a lot of typos. But reading in Russian is still faster than in English).
