If you are an electronics engineer, or one in the making, and if you haven’t yet laid your hands on this magazine, I must say, u are missing out on something very good. Yes, I’m talking about the magazine, Electronics For You. This magazine has been around the block from the past 37 years and it’s popularity has been increasing exponentially, ever since. It is essential for each one of us to keep track with the latest developments in our field and the fields of science related to it. We are all aware of the fact and also agree to it that our syllabus books alone will not help us climb the ladder of ultimate success. EFY is a magazine that brings to us the latest happenings in the technological world to our door-step. The main attraction about this monthly feed is that it caters to almost every section of the society. Students, lecturers, industrialists, engineers, technocrats and also the common man. Each issue of EFY has a section called ‘buyers guide’ which explains about one particular electronic product which we wanted to own but didn’t know how to go about selecting the best one for us.
There is a section called ‘circuit ideas’ which brings to us new and simplified circuits of common applications which we all can execute. There is a software section, a section which focuses on the industry and gives detailed market scenario of the products under consideration, a section called ‘construction’ which gives the part list, circuit description and the construction of general electronic stuff that we use in daily life. A section dedicated to the new products, recently introduced in India from various parts of the world that makes us aware of the latest components, tools, equipment, testing and measuring devices, power supplies, latest home and office products and many more things. Each article is written by highly experienced people who’ve been in the industry since ages, so the error percentage is highly negligible.
Every description is supported by attractive pictures and diagrams to give the reader a real feel of the product. You don’t only read about it but also get to see how the product looks like. All this and more, at very affordable prices. Each monthly issue is available in two forms, one with a CD, which costs INR 60and the other without a CD, which costs INR 30. The CD that comes along stores some interesting softwares which are pretty interesting to work with. Do have a look. I’m sure, you’ll love it.
