Core Electronics

Core Electronics can be broadly divided into two sections: Analog Electronics and Digital Electronics

Here are some resources to learn Analog Electronics:

CourseFormatDetails
Electronic Devices and Circuit Theory (11th Edition)-Prentice Hall (2012)bookWritten by Robert L. Boylestad, Louis Nashelsky, this is a must read!
Integrated ElectronicsbookWritten by Millmain and Halkias, great pick for Integrated Systems
Op Amps Design Application and TroubleshootingbookWritten by David Terrell, introduces you to Op Amp design
Design_of_Analog_CMOS_Integrated_Circuit_2nd_EditionvideosThese lectures will provide a deep insight into Electronic devices and circuits

Next up we have Digital Electronics, so brace yourselves!!

CourseFormatDetails
Digital DesignbookWritten by M. Morris Mano, this is an indespensable book to master Digital Electronics
Digital Electronics by Neso AcademyvideosThese lectures are great for those starting out in Digital Electronics
Verilog (Hardware Descriptive language)videosThese lectures will get you upto speed with Hardware Modelling

Other than Analog and Digital Electronics, we have some more areas that are vitalfor becoming proficient in the area of Core Electronics

Signals & Systems and Electromagnetic Theory & Antenna play a vital role in the field of electronics. They are vital as the whole of communication infrastructure is based of off these fields.

Here are some places you could get well-versed with Signals & Systems

CourseFormatDetails
Principles of Linear Signals and SystemsbookWritten by B.P. Lathi, this is a good read for S&S
Signals and Systems: Analysis Using Transform Methods & MATLABbookThis can be referred to if you are into simulation of signals using MATLAB
Advanced Image and Video Processing Using MATLABbookThis is good in-case you want to make a deep dive into Image and Video Processing

Last but not the least we have Electromagnetic Theory & Antenna

CourseFormatDetails
Elements of ElectromagneticsbookWritten by Sadiku, this introduces you to the concepts of Electromagnetics
Antenna Theory: Analysis and Design bookThis book talks about the Antenna theory, it's basics and design
Antenna and EM Modeling with MatlabbookThis book takes both EM and Antenna concepts to simulation using MATLAB.

This section ends here, hope these resources help you get a good undertsanding principles of Electronics and how they are being used in devices around us on a regular basis!!
