Fundamentals of Electric Circuit Analysis

Download or read book Fundamentals of Electric Circuit Analysis written by Clayton R. Paul and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2001 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the development of fundamental skills, this new text is designed for a one-semester course in the analysis of linear circuits. The author meticulously covers the important topics within a sound pedagogical organization while minimizing unnecessary detail so that the student can develop a lasting and sound set of analysis skills. The major topics presented include the analysis of resistive circuits (including controlled sources and op amps) and the analysis of circuits in the sinusoidal steady state (phasor analysis). Emphasized also is the analysis of circuits in the time domain in response to a disturbance (switching operations and the unit step and unit impulse responses) and is developed primarily using the Laplace transform. A brief description of the classical method of solving the circuit differential equations is included.
