Product Description
This book defines a modular data-bus system for data acquisition and control - Standard 960-1986 applies to systems consisting of modular electronic instrument units that process or transfer data or signals, normally in association with computers or other automatic data processors. Mechanical, signal, electrical and protocol specifications are given to assure compatibility between units from different sources of design and production. The system on which this standard is based was developed by the NIM Committee of the US National Laboratories and other major laboratories. ... Read more

A tinkers guide for beginning PC hardware interfacing.
I first purchased this book as a technology student with an interest in PC hardware.His no-nonsense approach allows even a beginner to connect to his/her PC with little(but not zero) risk to their system.

You will find that complex projects are replaced by simple circuits to speed understanding.While there are a few project plans given, this book is more about ideas and building blocks.His use of the printer port removes the need of having to pull the case off your computer, thus providing you a great place to put your circuit.

This book will show you the basics of CHEAPLY learning to build BLOCK CIRCUITS using simple, well written C programmes and common electronic components.

But be forewarned, this book is technical. If you're unsure about the difference between a FET and a BJT, you may find the book difficult but not impossible.But if you understand some digital logic, simple structured C programming, and not afraid to connect half a LM556 for a LM5! 55, it's a great place to start learning.

It's a must for HAMs. Electronics, Physics, and Engineering Students will also find it valuable.

If you are a university science student, imagine not having to watch a thermometer but automatically log data at regular intervals!! Well worth the 12-15 bucks. ... Read more
