Author(s): Harry Kybett, Earl Boysen
Publisher: Wiley
Date : 2008

Electric Circuits, Eighth Edition features a new design, a four-color format, and 80% of chapter problems have been updated. In the midst of these changes, the book retains the goals that have made it a best-seller: 1) To build an understanding of concepts and ideas explicitly in terms of previous learning; 2) To emphasize the relationship between conceptual understanding and problem solving approaches; 3) To provide readers with a strong foundation of engineering practices. Chapter topics include Circuit Variables; Circuit Elements; Simple Resistive Circuits; Techniques of Circuit Analysis; The Operational Amplifier; Inductors, Capacitors, and Mutual Inductance; Response of First-Order RL and RC Circuits; Natural and Step Responses of RLC Circuits; Sinusoidal Steady-State Analysis; and more. For anyone interested in circuit analysis.

From the Back Cover
(1) It builds an understanding of concepts based on information the reader has previously learned; (2) The book helps stress the relationship between conceptual understanding and problem-solving approaches; (3) The authors' provide numerous examples and problems that use realistic values and situations, giving the reader a strong foundation of engineering practice.

FEATURES/BENEFITS

PSpice Supplement contains problems to teach how to construct PSpice source files-PSpice can be used to solve many of the exercises and problems found in the book.

Designed for use in a one or two-semester Introductory Circuit Analysis or Circuit Theory Courses taught in Electrical or Computer Engineering Departments. The most widely used introductory circuits textbook. Emphasis is on student and instructor assessment and the teaching philosophies remain:
- To build an understanding of concepts and ideas explicitly in terms of previous learning
- To emphasize the relationship between conceptual understanding and problem solving approaches
- To provide students with a strong foundation of engineering practices.
