Principles of Electric Circuits: Conventional Current Version (7th Edition)
Book Description This book provides an exceptionally clear introduction to DC/AC circuits supported by superior exercises, examples, and illustrations-and an emphasis on troubleshooting and applications. It features an exciting full color format which uses color to enhance the instructional value of photographs, illustrations, tables, charts, and graphs. Throughout the book's coverage, the use of mathematics is limited to only those concepts that are needed for understanding. Floyd's acclaimed troubleshooting emphasis, as always, provides learners with the problem solving experience they need for a successful career in electronics. Chapter topics cover components, quantities and units; voltage, current, and resistance; Ohm's Law; energy and power; series circuits; parallel circuits; series-parallel circuits; circuit theorems and conversions; branch, mesh, and node analysis; magnetism and electromagnetism; an introduction to alternating current and voltage; phasors and complex numbers; capacitors; inductors; transformers; RC circuits; RL circuits; RLC circuits and resonance; basic filters; circuit theorems in AC analysis; pulse response of reactive circuits; and polyphase systems in power applications. For electronics technicians, electronics teachers, and electronics hobbyists. Book Info Offers hands-on coverage of electric circuits, applications and troubleshooting. Provides comprehensive, practical coverage of basic electrical concepts and circuits. CD-ROM included. DLC: Electric circuits. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. Reader Reviews This review is from: Principles of Electric Circuits (6th Edition) (Hardcover) This books focuses on the fundamentals of electric circuits. It walks students very carefully through the basics of electric circuits. What I liked in particular was that the book provides examples of things like: "why would you place resistors in parallel" or "why would you place resistors in a series". It has a CD in the back that I haven't tried yet, but looks interesting. The CD has more experiments with circuits using a simulator or two. Comment | | (Report this)
