Printed Circuits Handbook, 7/e Clyde Coombs, Happy Holden
Imprint: STANDARD USE
Pub Date: MARCH 2016 ISBN: 9780071833950 Previous Edition ISBN: 9780071467346 Format: Hardback Subject Area: Electrical and Electronic Engineering Pages: 1648 Illustrations: 500 UK Price: 151.99 Euro Price: 189.99 SA$ Price: 199.00
A comprehensive revision of the most widely used and recognized reference book
covering all phases of printed circuit technology.
Printed circuits are the basic building block of all electronic devices. While printed circuit
boards (PCBs) are critical to the success of the original equipment manufacturer (OEM),
their technical complexity and implications are often underestimated, leaving manufacturers
with questions on how to get PCBs to perform effectively at the lowest possible cost, while
being delivered on time. Answering these questions has been the core reason that the
Printed Circuits Handbook has been the defacto professional reference for more than 45 years.
Changes in technology, and the industry itself, require not only the update of the technical
aspects of the book, but also the introduction of geographical specialization boards and
assemblies that are mostly designed in North America and Europe, but are now fabricated
and assembled by specialist manufacturing companies in Asia. The main new issue for the
Seventh Edition will be the addition of material that provides critical guidance on how to
create, manage, and measure the performance of the global supply chain. This will be done
by leveraging the wealth of technical knowledge that exists in the present chapters, and showing how it can be used to match board needs and board sources.

Presents the latest technologies and processes for petroleum refining from the
world’s leading producers.
This new edition will include a shift in emphasis to accommodate the increased production of
shale gas and shale oil which is changing the overall mix of hydrocarbon feeds. Declining
conventional crude production and the need for regional energy independence continues to
drive demand to use lower-cost, alternate feedstocks such as coal, shale oil and heavy
crude. To use alternate feedstocks in existing refineries, many processes will need to be
modified. The increase in diesel demand and stricter fuel specifications is driving refiners to
look for ways to produce higher yields from existing assets. The book will reflect these
factors plus the increase in residue conversion; hydrocracking evolving as a primary
conversion process; and hydro-treating increasing as a way to treat virgin and cracked middle distillate streams.
