Product Description: Featuring the latest research on standards and curriculum design, this valuable resource provides educators with a systematic approach for instructional planning aligned with today's high standards.

This text is a revision of "Industrial Electronics". This study doesn't limit its presentation to isolated devices or individual circuits, but strongly emphasizes the need for students to study and understand complete, real industrial systems as they exist in industry. The text examines a wide variety of systems, from PLCs to industrial robots and the author includes a range of background information regarding the economic importance and/or environmental impact of the production process involved in the system. Additionally, because he adopts the logical view that things will go wrong in any real system, the author also makes certain students find plenty of opportunities throughout the material to practice determining probable causes for system failures, and deciding upon specific steps to take to correct the problems.
