Software tools applied to circuit analysis and design are rapidlyevolving, enabling students to move beyond the time-consuming,math-intensive methods of traditional circuit instruction. Byincorporating MATLAB 7.0 and PSpice 10.0, alongside systematic useof the Laplace transform, Yang and Lee help readers rapidly gain anintuitive understanding of circuit concepts. * Unified scheme using the Laplace transform acceleratescomprehension * Focuses on interpreting solutions and evaluating designresults, not laborious computation * Most examples illustrated with MATLAB analyses and PSpicesimulations * Downloadable programs available for hands-on practice * Over 130 problems to reinforce and extend conceptualunderstanding Includes expanded coverage of key areas such as: * Positive feedback OP Amp circuits * Nonlinear resistor circuit analysis * Real world 555 timer circuit examples * Power factor correction programs * Three-phase AC power system analysis * Two-port parameter conversion Based on decades of teaching electrical engineering students,Yang and Lee have written this text for a full course in circuittheory or circuit analysis. Researchers and engineers withoutextensive electrical engineering backgrounds will also find thisbook a helpful introduction to circuit systems.weiterlesen
