IDC Books - Technical Training that Works
Electronic Engineering
Electronics engineering involves an intimate knowledge of the behaviour of electrons to develop components, devices, systems or equipment. There are many subfields such as biomedical engineering, power electronics, digital signal and image processing. In common with all of the courses within the Electronics course category, students in this field require a multi-disciplinary approach. The short courses in this category offer practical, industry focused technical content, that can be used straight away.
DS-E - Digital Signal Processing Systems
This manual covers the fundamentals of Digital Signal Processing (DSP), applying DSP technology to improve efficiency, analysing frequency of signals and the application of this knowledge, the correct application of design digital filters, analysing the performance of DSP systems, identifying the key issues in designing a DSP system and the specific features and capabilities of commercial DSP applications.

EB-E - Practical Embedded Controllers Troubleshooting and Design
From microwave ovens to alarm systems to industrial PLC and DCS control systems, embedded controllers are controlling our world. The microcontrollers that are at the heart of these and many more devices are becoming easier and simpler to use. But when these devices fail the solution to the problem needs to be found and the repairs have to be done quickly. This manual will help the technician, engineer and even the most casual user understand the inter-workings of microcontrollers along with the most common problems and their solutions.

SG-E - Practical Shielding, EMCEMI, Noise Reduction, Earthing and Circuit Board Layout
The aim of this manual is to help you identify, design, prevent and fix common EMI/EMC problems with a focus on earthing and shielding techniques. Learning how to fix earthing and shielding problems on the job can be very expensive and frustrating. Although it must be noted that most of the principles involved are simple, this manual will give you the tools to approach earthing and shielding issues in a logical and systematic way. This manual focuses on the issues of interest to you if you are working in design, operation or maintenance of analog or digital systems involving sensors, data acquisition, process control, cables, signal processing, programmable logic controllers, power distribution, high speed logic etc.

EI-E - Practical Troubleshooting of Electronic Circuits for Engineers and Technicians
This manual will give you a solid understanding in common electronic terminology and symbols, as well as the construction and operation of common electronic components. The general troubleshooting process is explained followed by a brief study of various hand tools and electronic test and measuring instruments. You will learn to implement procedures for the testing of electronic components as well as skills for carrying out simple repair procedures for the correction of faults on printed circuit boards with confidence.

Apr 18, 2019
It survived the French Revolution and two world wars. The landmark is part of Paris’ soul, embodying the city’s history and partially shaping its identity through its religious and architectural significance. The Notre Dame de Paris, a jewel in the French crown, and a marvel of civil engineering, has suffered extensive damage due to fire.The stunning monument has stood for[…] -
Britam Tower in Kenya awarded best in mechanical and electrical engineering
Apr 16, 2019
Taking a high-rise structure from concept to completion is no easy task — structural and geotechnical engineers usually face an array of design-related challenges. From vulnerability, to seismic activity, to understanding the risks of underlying soils, designing a tall building is a feat within itself.However, engineers in Kenya can rejoice as The Britam Tower in Nairobi has been named as[…] -
Reducing carbon emissions with electric aircraft
Apr 15, 2019
Scientists believe if we’re going to combat climate change, we need to electrify all forms of transport. In fact, according to the International Civil Aviation Organization, the demand for air travel by 2050 could increase aviation sector greenhouse gases by 700 per cent compared to emissions in 2005.As it stands, aviation is responsible for two percent of the world’s carbon[…] -
Are flying cars the future of sustainable transport?
Apr 15, 2019
Flying cars could be the key to lowering carbon emissions through sustainable transport in the future, according to a new study.The University of Michigan has found while flying cars — which are technically called electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft, or VTOLs — are not justifiable for short trips, they have a niche role in sustainable transport for trips further[…]
