Synopsis

This text allows students to learn the fundamental concepts in linear circuit analysis using a well-developed methodology that has been carefully refined through classroom use. Applying his many years of teaching experience, A. Bruce Carlson focuses the reader's attention on basic circuit concepts and modern analysis methods. He systematically unfolds each idea, covering studies of node and mesh equations, phasors, the s-domain, Fourier series, Laplace transforms and state variables in a practical "just-in-time" manner. In applying his methodology for study and understanding, each chapter begins with a list of action-oriented learning objectives and follows through to a summary of the major relevant points and relationships. He also provides students with an abundance of practical, worked examples and exercises to help them master the topics.

About this title

From the Publisher

This extremely student-friendly text uses a "just-in-time" format which develops circuit concepts and techniques at an introductory level before progressing to more sophisticated topics. Includes a brief discussion of the classical solution of differential circuit equations but the primary emphasis is on modern engineering methods such as phasors, network functions, Laplace transforms, and state equations. When a particular technique involves several parts, it is presented as a procedural algorithm enabling students to clearly perceive the successive steps. Contains over 200 worked examples, 240 exercises, and 1000+ problems.
