According to my opinion
During my preparation days for BARC, I found that proper time management
and good choice of study material helped me a lot. So don't waste your valuable
time to read low grade books and material. Always try to prefer and read only standard
books and materials. Seeing tough competition in interview like BARC, you
should have something more than others. Everyone reads same books, material and
even take same coaching but success come to only those who make their own
effort. During interview, my practical knowledge and practical aspects of
theory, standard definition helped me to crack interview. focus on your
subjects and try to learn its piratical significance in industry and current
demand. use google for your doubts. Vocational training and projects play
important role to understand real meaning of subjects.
Books and material i used
i used some good books and materials. I found that every books has some
good thing. writers focused on some topics in their books very well according
to our needs. I categorized those topics according to books and subjects here.
Some books are highly recommended to buy it as soon as possible, but do not buy
all these books, you can download its pdf versions. I wrote here which books
you should purchase and which to download only.
Electronics devices
1. streetman and
banerjee: you should buy it, i contains all the topics according to your
theoretical and practical needs. good book for everything about semiconductor,
special focus on MOS capacitors, metal semiconductor junction, opto electronics
devices and CMOS fabrication.
2. Electronics Devices
by Thomas L. Floyd: download its pdf, it contain practical applications
and troubleshooting of all devices.(for interview only)
3. Introduction to
semiconductor materials and devices by M.S. Tyagi : pdf only, good book for
tunnel diode, breakdown mechanism details, quantum mechanics details.(for
advance reader only)
Analog Electronics
1. sedra smith
microelectronic circuits : you should buy it, best book for analog electronics.
It contain everything (theory). special focus to all devices and circuits. but
you need to read only those topics which are asked in competition.
2. Made Easy Analog
Notes by Iftekar Sir: cover every topics in short to revise but for BJT and MOS
amplifier, you should read Sedra. special focus on diodes, op amps, BJT basics.
3. Practical
Electronics for Inventors by paul Scherz : pdf only, practicle application of
analog circuits. special focus to understand pactical electronics.
4. Make Electronics by
charles Platt: pdf only, good for those who do not understand soldering, ICs
and practical connections of circuits.
Electromagnetic Field Theory and Antennas
1. Principles of
Electromagnetics by Sadiku: buy it, good book for beginning to the
subject.special focus on vectors, EM wave propagation, electric field.
transmission line is not so good but smith chart is well defined.
2. Nathan Ida
Engineering Electromagnetics: pdf only, good book for basic and advanced
understanding of subject. special focus on practical application of theory,
Electromagnetic Induction, transient analysis of transmission lines(not give in
Sadiku), if you are prepared for BARC interview then it really help you.
3. Antenna by J D
kraus: pdf only, good for only basics of antenna, special focus on antenna array,
parabolic reflector. read it only for these topics.
4. Antenna by K D
prasad: buy it, good for everything of antenna, special focus on practical
antennas eg. helical, slot, yagi uda, horn, dipole, hertzian and travelling
wave antenna.
5. Made Easy notes by
VSR suresh sir: for transmission line and electric and magnetic field only.
Control System
1. Automatic control
system by B.C. kuo: buy it, good book for transient response, steady state
errors, mathematical modelling. special focus on controllers and compensaters.
2. B S manke: for
block diagram and state variable.
Signal and System
1. Signal and system
by oppenheim: buy it, best book for sinal and system, no other book or material
needed.
2. Made Easy notes by
Vishnu sir: best teacher of signal and system, even notes is sufficient for
subject. according to me for signal you should read in Made Easy.
Network analysis
1. Engineering circuit
analysis by Hayt and kemmerly: buy it, best book for network, it covers theory,
numerical and practical all in single book.special focus on problem solving
skills.
2. Fundamental of
Electric Circuits by Sadiku: I do not read this book, but heard from everybody
this is also good book as like Hayt. Special focus on numerical.
Best of luck
