New
for 2009: Free Virtual Circuit Kits:
Our Free Hybrid eBooks: The key element of the Virtual Electronics Teaching system is our free eBook: Electronic Concepts. This e-book teaches electronics by explaining the operation of a variety of circuits. It covers basic networks, transistors, regulated power supplies and much more. Electronic Concepts is a hybrid e-book. Our hybrid e-books are meant to be read while viewing an Internet slideshow using our Internet Slide Show Control Matrix. Electronic Concepts can be downloaded from the Slide Show Control Matrix page in Zipped PDF format. [ Go there! ] Download and print book. Read book while watching slideshow. Electronic Concepts can be downloaded from the Slide Show Control Matrix page in zipped PDF format. [ Go there! ] Download and print* book. Read book while watching slideshow. Book directs you to control online slideshow by clicking a specific number in a matrix of numbers. * You can view eBook on your computer if you want to save paper, but window switching is a little cumbersome.

Older (Pre-Hybrid) Publications: Click here to see a complete listing of our online eBooks, laboratories, libraries; and other publications. We integrate electronics, physics, and mathematical online troubleshooting to provide performance orientated technical education.
System Troubleshooting We have developed four interactive online methods of teaching system troubleshooting; namely: Electronics Troubleshooting, Physics system Troubleshooting, Numerical Troubleshooting, and JavaScript programming. This eBook is an example of the electronics troubleshooting method. To see examples of the other three methods, select one of the following: Physics
System Troubleshooting For those
simply looking for conventional free online electronics tutorials, we maintain
an excellent library of links.
Go
there! Attention High school Students: The most difficult aspects of becoming a system or electronics technician are taught in High school. Take all the algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and physics courses available in High school and you can be taught electronics in a half year. I attended army schools that did just that. Once you mastered these subjects you could learn electronic troubleshooting from reading books or Web material. My site provides you with free simulations to test and develop your troubleshooting skills.
Inserting faults in circuits to provide students with troubleshooting experience is a time consuming and difficult task. It is difficult to insert faults into circuits that will not easily be found by inspection. Furthermore, it is usually easy for a student to troubleshoot a circuit that he or she designed and/or assembled. My circuit animations provide virtual troubleshooting experience for students. I would like to hear from teachers who use my site. Positive or negative feedback will be appreciated. Use email address at bottom of page.

Future Publication policy: In 2009 science-ebooks.com
will focus on the distribution of free kits containing animations and
simulations of electronic circuits. Today
students have a wide variety of choices of free books about electronics. They
can get paper books from the public library or choose from a broad list of
online tutorials. My animated eBooks about physics or electronics have been well
received, but have had to share the Internet market place with many other
electronics internet sites. My research has shown that there is an ample supply
of tutorials about electronics on the internet. Therefore, I have decided to
switch from creating virtual animated books to producing free virtual circuits
and laboratory kits. In many cases my virtual circuits are better than brick
and mortar electronics laboratory experiments. Building real circuits on
bread boards is a good exercise, but soon becomes a repetitive waste of time.
The purpose of my Kits is to provide a virtual interactive electronics
laboratory experience for technical students. Students studying electronics from
a book should find this extremely useful. My virtual electronics animations and
simulations clearly demonstrate the principles of circuit operation. Virtual
troubleshooting is the best feature of my software. I insert faults into many of
my virtual circuits, so that student can practice their troubleshooting skills.
This allows students teaching themselves electronics to practice troubleshooting
without the benefit of expensive test equipment. Schools can use my kits
consisting of virtual circuits and save the cost of stocking electronic
components. When I taught electronics at a technical school, I spent lots of
time checking and replacing the parts missing from lab kits. Students wasted
time bread boarding circuits that were really already designed in their
textbook. Teachers spent lots of time inserting shorts or opens in circuit that
the students had bread boarded. My animations are free and the faults
that I insert cannot be found by visual inspection. The advantages of virtual
troubleshooting are: 1.0 Low cost of virtual
circuits. 2.0 Student cannot find the
fault by inspection. 3.0 No time consuming fault
insertion required. 4.0 Supplements Teach
Yourself Electronics Books with a virtual laboratory. 5.0 The Hands off fault isolation techniques that I teach are becoming ever more prevalent. 6.0 Standalone curriculum.
Teachers can download kits and use simulation off line. Forever* * Animations
can be used indefinitely even if my site shuts down. The disadvantages
of my virtual troubleshooting exercises are: 1.0 They do not teach SAFETY.
Virtual circuits cannot shock and do not contain Hazardous materials. 2.0 Do not teach setting up
tests using real test equipment. 3.0 Cannot duplicate the full
range of physical phenomena that one encounters in real circuits. 4.0 Technicians do not learn
to solder, wire wrap, and operate test equipment. In short my animations only
support hands off troubleshooting. Much of modern troubleshooting is hands
off and only involves analysis of data displayed on a screen. When I began
troubleshooting in 1964, I used meters and scopes to analyze faults to the
component level. When I retired in 1998, 90% of the time I analyzed electronic
system data that was displayed on CRT in order to fault isolate to the module
level. Troubleshooting to the component level was accomplished on an external
module test fixture. Today cars are troubleshot in the same manner. Cable TV
companies also generate data displays for their service technicians. If I press
the right sequence of buttons on my cable TV remote control, I get displays
showing the decibel level of input signal over a range of frequencies. How
Can Animations be interactive? The slider control of the media player allows
for both forward and backward movement in time. By sequential frame by frame
filming of one of my simulations while turning a knob on this simulation, an
animation is created that appears truly interactive. The slider control that
operates in the time domain appears to be operating in the frequency domain. The
slider control can also mimic the control of a variable resistor or other
adjustable device.
