(More customer reviews)Previously published as one volume, this book is now one of two under the general name Digital Avionics Handbook (2nd Edition). The two volumes are Avionics: Elements, Software and Functions and Avionics: Development and Implementation.
This book offers a comprehensive view of avionics from understanding the basic technology and components that make up the overall system. It includes examples of modern systems flying on the latest military and civil aircraft. There are 23 chapters in Elements, Software, and Functions, 13 chapters in Development and Implementation. They are written by experts in their individual areas. The authors come from industry and government, from both the United States and other countries. The subjects range from the 'lowly' battery to the latest in fly-by-wire technology.
With so many subjects to be covered, this book is basically an introduction to the various fields. It is, nowever, an introduction aimed at the engineer who has been assigned to or may in the future have to work in this area.
This is the second edition, published in 2007 and up to date as of the mid to later part of 2006.
