Description
Circuit analysis is one of the fundamental subjects underlying the practice of electrical engineering. This book is for students of electrical and electronic engineering at a first degree level. It will also be useful to students studying other branches of engineering needing to understand this subject. This book is deliberately relatively compact yet it also covers a more comprehensive range of topics to a greater depth than is usual. Dr Howatson achieves this by concentrating explanations and examples on those topics which students typically find difficult. The text contains more than 90 fully worked practical examples. Topics are grouped to bring out similarities in the underlying principles to aid comprehension. The mathematical prerequisites are also modest. The result is a concise text tuned to students' needs and abilities. Topics covered: circuit components, and d.c. and a.c. This book is intended for first and second year Electrical and/or Electronic Engineers; Computer Science.
