Summary: Useful design information
Review: Passive Circuits Design by Ian Sinclair is a good book that shows a lot of insight into how electrical components behave in the real world. Reading the section of the book explaining how capacitors behave was the most useful to me so far.I found one error on page 194 Cell Origins. The book explains that the cathode is the negative terminal and anode the positive terminal, this is wrong because from other references that I have checked. In Electro-chemical cells the anode is the negative terminal where oxidation takes place. The Cathode is the positive terminal where reduction takes place. The book covers a lot of information including a primer on CAD and some information on computer hardware I/O ports. All in all it is a good book filled with practical information
