Description
Electric circuit Analysis is designed to serve as a textbook for undergraduate course on basic electric circuits. The book builds on the subject from its basic principles. Spread over fourteen chapters, the book can be taught with varying degree of emphasis based on the course requirement. Written in a student-friendly manner, its narrative style places adequate stress on the principles that govern the behaviour of electric circuits.

Features

• Replete with clear illustrations, solved examples, review questions and end-of-chapter problems, the narrative style is ideal for students at the freshman and  sophomore level.
• Basic concepts are explained in detail, placing emphasis on providing a qualitative understanding of various circuit theory concepts and their inter-relations.
• Discussions of key topics are borne out with precision and mathematical rigor, adding value to the treatment.
• Linear time-invariant circuits are dealt with due focus, providing the students of linear systems analysis, and signals and systems with sound reference  material
