Features: This book provides practical explanations of terms used in the field of electronics. Electronic technology, which is primarily used in information and communication, is applied in various fields, from household and office electronic devices to transportation systems, medical technology, and space development, and continues to develop new technologies. For technicians working in various fields, correctly understanding the meaning of electronic terms is essential. The purpose of editing and publishing this book is precisely this. Since its first publication in 1969, the book has been well-received by all sectors. With the advancement of science and technology, it has been revised and reprinted multiple times. Over the past 30 years, it has been praised by readers from all walks of life. It has been revised and reprinted multiple times because the book extensively includes terms related to electronics, from basic to cutting-edge technologies, explained in an easily understandable form, and includes essential numerical values and basic formulas, meaning it covers the fundamental terms of electronics. The "New Edition" revised in 1991 has been 10 years since then. To adapt to the current situation, this reedition has significantly removed outdated terms and carefully selected terms expected to be useful for future cutting-edge technologies. Regarding computer terms, emphasis is placed on basic hardware terms. This book includes more than 4,900 entries covering fields such as electromagnetism, material properties, and other fundamental areas of electronics, circuit technology, electrical and electronic materials, semiconductor devices, communication technology, audio/video technology, measurement instruments, and control technology. For students of universities and colleges, as well as science and technology personnel, this book serves as an important and comprehensive reference tool.
We would like to thank the authors who meticulously and diligently contributed to this work. Especially since the th edition, Mr. Iwakawa Tomonao served as the chief editor, dedicating himself to determining the editorial direction of this book, completing the manuscript, and adjusting it, from selecting entries to reviewing them. However, he passed away unexpectedly before the book was completed. We deeply mourn his loss and express our heartfelt gratitude.
This book is an electronic engineering dictionary, with entries arranged in the order of Japanese, English, and Chinese. It provides annotations for the fundamental terms of various branches of the electronics field using necessary diagrams, formulas, and clear, easy-to-understand language. The content covers electromagnetism, circuits, electrical and electronic materials, semiconductor devices, communication technology, audio/video technology, measurement instruments, and control technology, with a total of 4,900 entries. At the end of the book, there are Chinese and English indexes for easy reference. This book can serve as a reference for professionals in electronics and related fields, as well as for university and college teachers and students, professional translators, and electronics enthusiasts as a handy tool.
