electrical engineering students as well as other engineereing and technology students Emphasis is placed on the basic laws, theorems, and problem-solving techniques which are common to most courses The subject matter is divided into 17 chapters covering duly-recognized areas of theory and study The chapters begin with statements of pertinent definitions, principles, and theorems together with illustrative examples This is followed by sets of solved and supplementary problems The problems cover a range of levels of difficulty Some problems focus on fine points, which helps the student to better apply the basic principles correctly and confidently The supplementary problems are generally more numerous and give the reader an opportunity to practice problem-solving skills Answers are provided with each supplementary problem The book begins with fundamental definitions, circuit elements including dependent sources, circuit laws and theorems, and analysis techniques such as node voltage and mesh current methods These theorems and methods are initially applied to DC-resistive circuits and then extended to RLC circuits by the use of impedance and complex frequency Chapter on amplifiers and op amp circuits is new The op amp examples and problems are selected carefully to illustrate simple but practical cases which are of interest and importance in the student’s future courses The subject of waveforms and signals is also treated in a new chapter to increase the student’s awareness of commonly used signal models Circuit behavior such as the steady state and transient response to steps, pulses, impulses, and exponential inputs is discussed for first-order circuits in Chapter and then extended to circuits of higher order in Chapter 8, where the concept of complex frequency is introduced Phasor analysis, sinuosidal steady state, power, power factor, and polyphase circuits are thoroughly covered Network functions, frequency response, filters, series and parallel resonance, two-port networks, mutual inductance, and transformers are covered in detail Application of Spice and PSpice in circuit analysis is introduced in Chapter 15 Circuit equations are solved using classical differential equations and the Laplace transform, which permits a convenient comparison Fourier series and Fourier transforms and their use in circuit analysis are covered in Chapter 17 Finally, two appendixes provide a useful summary of the complex number system, and matrices and determinants This book is dedicated to our students from whom we have learned to teach well To a large degree it is they who have made possible our satisfying and rewarding teaching careers And finally, we wish to thank our wives, Zahra Nahvi and Nina Edminister for their continuing support, and for whom all these efforts were happily made MAHMOOD NAHVI JOSEPH A EDMINISTER This page intentionally left blank For more information about this title, click here CHAPTER CHAPTER CHAPTER Introduction
