Written for electronics engineering technology students
taking their first course in circuit theory, this exceptional book has been
hailed by users and reviewers alike as one of the best on the market. The 4th
Edition provides updated coverage of standard circuit analysis topics in a
remarkably easy-to-understand fashion, including fundamentals of DC and AC,
methods of analysis, capacitance, inductance, magnetism, simple transients,
transformers, Fourier series, and more. Essential concepts are complemented with
hundreds of worked out examples designed to lead readers through the critical
thinking processes required to solve problems, preparing them to reason their
way through life-like situations expected to be encountered on the
job. 984 pp.
Features:
Computer simulations using the latest versions of Multisim and PSpice are
integrated throughout via worked out examples, with step-by-step instructions
and full-color screen captures that show how to construct circuits, connect
meters, and test the operation of circuits
The use of calculator techniques in circuit analysis has been broadened,
with calculator hints and the usage of the TI-86 incorporated into more chapters
More than 1,200 full color diagrams and photographs add clarity and aid
visual learners, while nearly 1,600 practice problems, in-process learning
checks, and end of chapter problems encourage students to become active learners
Calculus is introduced gradually, but material is presented in such a manner
that non-calculus users can easily bypass the calculus material with no loss in
continuity
The back-of-book CD contains interactive tutorials, mini-tutorials on
circuit topics, a major new tutorial on the use of matrix methods in circuit
analysis, MultiSim files with nearly 100 pre-drawn MultiSim circuit schematics
for student use, and much more
Electronics into the Future, an interactive circuit analysis tool, is also
included on the CD and is useful for both instructors and students, encompassing
a range of multimedia presentations and interactive simulations
The back-of-book CD now features a movie presentation entitled OrCAD Capture
and PSpice Beginner's Tutorial which walks newcomers step-by-step through a
PSpice computer simulation
