The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA) recently released the third edition of The Handbook of Standardized Terminology for the Power Sources Industry . Revised and expanded and aimed at power engineers, this unique handbook contains definitions of hundreds of additional terms.
Including both print and CD versions, the third edition also contains illustrations and four new appendices (eight total appendices), including a listing of EMI specifications, excerpts from international standards of units and symbols, and guides for authors of technical papers. These added resources provide concise, easy-to-use references for engineers involved in technical writing and presentations.
Many new magnetic terms are described in this new 126-page edition that are of particular interest to the practicing designer and marketer of power supplies and related products. Valuable information regarding worldwide power sources, standards agencies, and military specifications has been retained, updated, and expanded from the previous edition.
The book comes in hard copy along with a CD containing a PDF version that can easily be searched for terms and words within the definitions, making it a valuable tool for posting on your internal network.
The book and CD price is $25 to PSMA members and $50 to nomembers, and may be purchased from:
