We have draft versions of two new indexes for the Art of Electronics 3rd edition. Please download the pdf files at our website,
We've reworked the Subject Index, tripling the number of page references, and doubling its length to 50 double-column pages. And we've also added a new part-number Parts Index, which is 36 pages long.
These are draft versions. We're inviting comments and corrections and additions before we complete the editing, add headings, etc., and create final versions (you can post comments here, email me directly, or contact me using the Contact tab on our website.)
We'll post final versions when they're ready, and we're considering updating the book's present Subject Index with the new longer one, in the upcoming 9th printing (given our huge book's size, the added size and weight is an issue).
For anyone not familiar with our book, or anyone who hasn't yet purchase a copy of the 3rd edition, let me reminding you of the free Chapter 9, see "Download a sample chapter" on the main page just below the notice of the Draft indexes,
This is an up-to-date version of the chapter, "Voltage Regulation and Power Conversion." 108 pages long, it's a small book in itself. This is a detailed high-resolution free-to-share chapter / monograph.
For knowledgeable engineers who think they might be bored with books like ours, I suggest reading sections 9.7 and 9.8 (file pages 90-102, book pages 660-672). This includes one of our "Designs by the Masters" series, in this case a detailed teardown and analysis of an Astrodyne OFM-1501 15-watt off-line power-supply module (photo page 25 / 595, upper right). Our examination includes full details, such as the transformer design. The OFM-1501 costs $48 qty 10,
