Electronics Engineering Periodicals

Trade Magazines

Embedded Systems Programming - ESP is my favorite magazine, with useful, real-world articles in nearly every issue, and excellent columns by Jack Ganssle and P.J. Plauger. Unfortunately, their web site is pretty well worthless. It has code from the magazine, and subscription forms, and a lot of useless ads, but that's about it.

Electronic Engineering Times - EE Times is a weekly newspaper for electronics engineers, and their web site is pretty darn good, with up-to-date news and an excellent (searchable!) archive of previously-published articles.

ECN - Electronic Component News - ECN is a monthly publication that offers information on new electronic components and tools. The web site has subscription information, and the EITD (Electronic Industry Telephone Directory) online. Oddly enough, it has almost no new-product information. Go figure.

EEM - Electronic Engineers Master - EEM, in it's paper or CD-ROM version, is a "catalog of catalogs" for the electronics industry, with information on everything from mechanical components to military electronics. The on-line version pales in comparison, offering only a searchable database of manufacturers and product catagories. Still useful, but hardly unique ...

Printed Circuit Design - PCD is a monthly publication for PCB designers. The web site (The Cyberspace Cafe) offers news, selected articles and columns from the magazine, and a very useful tutorial on SMT (surface-mount) device footprints.

Electronic Products - Another monthly new-products publication. The web site has subscription information, and an online, searchable database of previous new-product announcements.

Electronic Buyers News - EBN is the weekly business newspaper for corporate managers and purchasers. It has subscription info, a searchable article archive, and links to manufacturers and distributors.

EDN - Electronic Design News - One of the oldest and most prestigious EE publications, EDN's web site offers the typical mixture of subscription info and EE-related links, as well as a searchable archive of EDN articles, product announcements, and design ideas, and a decent selection of EE-related software.

The Computer Journal - TCJ is targeted at users of the "trailing edge of technology" (i.e. old computers and operating systems). The web site has some online articles from the magazine, pluse subscription info, FAQs, and links to related sites.

Circuit Cellar Ink - Another great magazine with a lousy web site. Not much here but subscription info and authors guidelines.
