Published in the year 2010, Engineering Circuit Analysis is a book that enables its readers to gain a sound understanding of the subject of circuit analysis. Summary Of The Book In this revised 7th edition of Engineering Circuit Analysis, the readers are given key insight into the concepts pertaining to circuit analysis. The presentation of this book is simple and the topics are explained by incorporating numerous examples and computer-aided analyses. In total, there are over 170 solved examples along with over 1400 practice questions. There are 18 chapters covered in the book. Some of the chapters included in the book are Circuit Analysis In The Domain, Magnetically Coupled Circuits, Sinusoidal Steady-State Analysis, Network Theorems & Useful Circuit Analysis Techniques, The RLC Circuit, Two Port Networks, Fourier Circuit Analysis, AC Circuit Power Analysis, Capacitors And Inductors, and Complex Frequency And The Laplace Transform. Additionally, there are seven appendices at the end of the book. They are titled A Brief MATLAB Tutorial, A Proof Of Thevenin’s Theorem, Complex Numbers, An Introduction To Network Topology, Solution Of Simultaneous Equations, Additional Laplace Transform Theorems, and A PSPICE Tutorial. Through the course of this book, the authors cover important concepts by incorporating a very practical approach. This edition also contains links to two chapters that are online, State Variable Analysis and The Operational Amplifiers. In addition to the textual content, the readers are provided with tips, warnings, and relevant illustrations to make the concepts easier to grasp. All in all, Engineering Circuit Analysis is a must-have for students as well as professionals who desire to better their understanding of this subject. The book is also a part of the curriculum for Electrical And Electronics Engineering students studying in renowned universities in India such as the National Institutes of Technology.
