The Ultimate Tesla Coil Design and Construction Guide is a 2007 practical engineering handbook by Mitch Tilbury, published by McGraw-Hill / TAB Electronics.

Overview

The book is a one-stop reference covering the theory, design tools, and construction techniques needed to build a Tesla coil with modern materials. It walks through resonant-transformer theory and each subsystem of a coil, and provides Excel spreadsheets for the design calculations and SPICE simulation models (on a companion website) so readers can predict and understand coil performance before building. It is aimed at hobbyists and engineers building high-voltage resonant coils.
