CMOS Projects and Experiments: Fun with the 4093 Integrated Circuit (Electronic Circuit Investigator) [Paperback]

Newton C. Braga (Author)

Book Description

Series: Electronic Circuit Investigator | Publication Date: December 7, 1999

Full of projects based on the 4093 CMOS IC, CMOS Projects and Experiments will be of great interest to hobbyists and students. Readers will have the opportunity to learn how to apply CMOS ICs in their six primary uses while building these well-documented projects.

CMOS Projects and Experiments includes instructions to build over 100 unusual and useful projects. They include audio and RF devices, lamps, LEDs, timers, alarms, inverters and much more. This book offers hobbyists and students a satisfying, practical way of learning about a hot topic in electronics today.

Among the devices you can build using this book are a touch-controlled oscillator, a light-controlled oscillator, insect repellent, a metronome, a Morse code tone generator, a CW transmitter, a two-tone siren, a neon-lamp flasher, an auto turn-off relay, a turn-off timer, a touch-controlled motor, a bistable sonic relay, a coin tosser, a freezer alarm, an ultraviolet lamp, a simple fluorescent lamp inverter, a nerve stimulator, and an experimental high-voltage generator.

This review is from: CMOS Projects and Experiments: Fun with the 4093 Integrated Circuit (Electronic Circuit Investigator) (Paperback)

Although the book does contain some typos and mismatched schematics with text the author does a fine job of introducing the 4093 and progresses logically to circuits of increased function or complexity. The beginning chaptors provide an intro and methods of interface to other devices. Some of the bistable circuits were difficult to get working reliably but an overall well authored book and referance. I would purchase it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the price, November 16, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: CMOS Projects and Experiments: Fun with the 4093 Integrated Circuit (Electronic Circuit Investigator) (Paperback)

This book was recommended to me by a co-worker to help understand the course material. While it wasn't the course textbook it did contain all of the course topics. It provided numerous examples and clear discussions.

I recommend that any student interested in custom analog or digital IC design get it. I would also say, from my colleagues input, that it is also a very good reference book.

In summary, it was well worth the price!
