Fans of Clive "Max" Maxfield's Designus Maximus column in Electronics Design News (EDN) magazine will be delighted to hear that the unabridged and unexpurgated versions of these articles are now available for the very first time in this definitive compilation volume. For your further delectation and delight, a selection of Max's articles from other electronics magazines are also included, along with some new subjects that were penned especially for this tome. Designus Maximus Unleashed is friendly, funny, quirky. . . . and also a solid, comprehensive introduction to a smorgasbord of contemporary electronics topics, ranging from design capture, logic synthesis, and digital simulation (logic, fault, and timing), through testing RAMs and ROMs, to the esoteric worlds of diamond substrates, deep submicron delays, genetic algorithms, and nanotechnology. |

Designus Maximus
Unleashed is packed with
hundreds of lavish, painstakingly drawn illustrations that clearly show the important
points of each topic. Be warned! This is not your classical, electronics book. In addition to the superbly presented technical content, you'll find a treasure trove of interesting and enlightening nuggets of trivia. |
| As is
usual in Max's books, Designus
Maximus Unleashed bounds along from one topic to the next with the agility of a
mountain goat. One moment you'll be up to your ears in interrupt handling techniques, and
the next you know you'll find yourself being regaled by the unexpected happenings on a van
trip across America. Wild and wacky it maybe, but Max's friendly and easy-going writing style has found a dedicated following of readers who enjoy discovering the unexpected. This book is a must have for anyone interested in learning more about the weird and wonderful world of electronics. |
