Know of any good books/sources of useful electronic schematics?
ballsystemlord:
Hello,
When looking up how people make this or that, I can't help but find that many of the schematics offered online are either not functional or poorly designed. It's not just me either. Some YT-ers make videos about fixing bad circuit designs you can find online.
Towards the end of getting a set of good/workable circuit schematics, I searched for books on the subject. I found some, but they're all from the late 1960s though the 1970s. This means that a lot of things can/have been converted into ICs or improved through the use of alternate tech, such as IGBTs/MOSFETs. So such books are a bit dated.
Do you know of good books or resources for circuit schematics?
Thanks!

useful electronic schematics?
That's too general. Discrete? Integrated? Analog? Digital? Power? Control? Audio? ... There are thousands of fields and millions of designs.
For example, flyback PSU is a big field all by itself.
And those outdated books... I have a few of them and still have found useful ideas like this which is about 50 years old:

The Encyclopedia of Electronic Circuits. I have volumes 1 - 6. Not sure what you really mean by "useful", But I browse these for ideas from time to time. Many schematics to not come with much information, but I find that part of the fun.

You can consider magazines as well. This one has lots of circuits throughout the years. And it is fun to read.
