Review #1

Beware there is no CD-Rom with version 6 of this Handbook

Buyer beware I was mis-lead by the statement below:

COOMBS' PRINTED CIRCUITS HANDBOOK features:
* CD-ROM with the entire book in searchable format.

This is not the case for the sixth edition of this handbook according to McGraw Hill.

One of the reasons I bought this book was because of that statement which is true for the 5th edition but not the 6th.

By the way it is available for Kindle at $100 Plus $339 for a Kindle. Also once you have bought the book it is available on-line for $27 more.

Otherwise the content of the book looks like it will be very useful as stated by the other reviewers.





Review #2

I agree


I agree with the majority of the reviews here. This is an invaluable reference book. Put it this way, this book will likely save you at least one re-spin on a complex board. That alone will pay for it's cost many times over.

Cheers,




Review #3

Must have reference book

The only reason I give this book a 4 star rating is because of the information that was removed from fourth to fifth edition. To serve as a complete reference you must buy both editions. The topics covered are significantly different.

Excellent books. Must have for any person involved in Printed circuit board industry.
