Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Circuit Designer's Companion covers the theoretical aspects and practices in analogue and digital circuit design. Electronic circuit design involves designing a circuit that will fulfill its specified function and designing the same circuit so that every production model of it will fulfill its specified function, and no other undesired and unspecified function. This book is composed of nine chapters and starts with a review of the concept of grounding, wiring, and printed circuits. The subsequent chapters deal with the passive and active components of circuitry design. These topics are followed by discussions of the principles of other design components, including linear integrated circuits, digital circuits, and power supplies. The remaining chapters consider the vital role of electromagnetic compatibility in circuit design. These chapters also look into safety, design of production, testability, reliability, and thermal management of the designed circuit. This book is of great value to electrical and design engineers.

Download or read book We are the Intelligent Designer written by James A Martin and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2024-06-18 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are multiple studies and writings on humans impact on the planet. Each focus is important but what is addressed here is how the silos cross influence. The impact may be by design or untended consequences of seemingly unrelated factors, but when mixed become a synthesis of actions beyond the original intent. Here the factors are featured and also the inter related results in the designed planet. And I look at what the form of hominin-like would be if designed for best function rather than the surviving elements (good and less than premium) of evolution.

Download or read book The Game Designer s Playbook written by Samantha Stahlke and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022-07-14 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Video games have captivated us for over 50 years, giving us entire worlds to explore, new ways to connect with friends, thought-provoking stories, or just a fun way to pass the time. Creating games is a dream for many, but making great games is challenging. The Game Designer's Playbook is about meeting that challenge. More specifically, it's a book about game interaction design; in other words, shaping what players can do and how they do it to make a game satisfying and memorable. Our time with a game is built on interaction, from basic things like pushing buttons on a controller, to making complicated strategic decisions and engaging with the narrative. If you've ever felt the adrenaline rush from beating a perfectly tuned boss fight or been delighted by the fanfare of picking up that last collectible, you've experienced good interaction design firsthand. The Game Designer's Playbook is about learning what makes for great (or terrible!) interaction design in games, exploring things like controls, feedback, story, and tutorial design by analyzing existing games. It also looks at how newer and still-developing tech like VR and streaming are changing the ways we play, and how you can bring great interaction design to your own games.
