The Analysis and Design of Linear Circuits

Rate this book
While most texts focus on how and why electric circuits work, The Analysis and Design of Linear Circuits taps into engineering students’ desire to explore, create, and put their learning into practice. Students from across disciplines will gain a practical, in-depth understanding of the fundamental principles underlying so much of modern, everyday technology. Early focus on the analysis, design, and evaluation of electric circuits promotes the development of design intuition by allowing students to test their designs in the context of real-world constraints and practical situations. This updated Ninth Edition features an emphasis on the use of computer software, including Excel, MATLAB, and Multisim, building a real-world problem-solving style that reflects that of practicing engineers. Software skills are integrated with examples and exercises throughout the text, and coverage of circuit design and evaluation, frequency response, mutual inductance, ac power circuits, and other central topics has been revised for clarity and ease of understanding. With an overarching goal of instilling smart judgement surrounding design problems and innovative solutions, this unique text provides inspiration and motivation alongside an essential knowledge base.

What were you expecting... it's a textbook on circuits. A little dry, but tolerable.

Another ... effort. There's just no getting past the tedium of network analysis.
