Overview
- Introduces the operational amplifier early, and uses it as a basic element throughout the book.
- Provides numerous exercises and examples throughout.
- Written in a clear, precise style that has been highly praised throughout many editions.
An undergraduate introductory electrical engineering text in linear lumped circuit analysis. Introduces passive and active circuit elements. Covers resistive circuits, dependent sources, op amps, methodology of analysis, energy storage elements, first and second order circuits, sinusoidal sources and phasor analysis of steady state circuits. Examines AC, power, three phase circuits, frequency response, inductance, and design of linear filters. Introduces, defines, and develops Fourier and Laplace transform analysis. SPICE related material is included in the last eight chapters. Familiarity with differential and integral calculus is assumed. Singularity functions and solutions of linear time-invariant differential equations are developed in the text.

New edition of a textbook for an introductory course in linear lumped circuit analysis. The first chapters introducing passive and active circuit elements, and the time domain analysis of AC and DC circuits, are followed by several chapters focused on phasor analysis of ac steady state circuits. The last part of the text develops the transform analysis methods of Laplace and Fourier and their application in framing various input-output descriptions and design methods. A quick reference guide for SPICE is included. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
