A heads up for the heavy read electronics types,
I had the first edition at college, and sold it on to a new student. Second edition came out, I was still broke so hunted down an old first on eBay.
For me third edition now on the way.
Third edition is excellent.
Also note that the X Chapters were released last week - basically the parts they had to leave out of AoE.
Also - there is Learning The AoE - about the same size as AoE - which is about 25 chapters, each containing theory, lab exercises, supplementary material and worked examples.
2nd Edition,£5 In the county Library Book sale when they were having a purge of reference books a couple of years ago.
But that is not far from 20 years old.
Thanks a lot for the heads up!
I don't rate AoE quite as highly as some, but that is partly because I am lucky enough to have had access to a lot of other classic App Notes, datasheets, design documents etc. In any case my 2nd edition is a bit sad now, and I saw a 3rd edition quite recently and was impressed. Ordered!

I'm sure that my beloved would luuuv one of those - NOT!
Correct. I was thinking of the date they were originally promising to publish he 3rd edition!
Handy, I had been toying with updating my 2nd edition and getting the X chapters book as well.
Is it 3rd or 4th that's the latest version just out?

3rd - came out in 2014. Learning AoE a bit later. X chapters this month.
It's here. I may be gone a while :)
