SynopsisStreamlined and Student-FriendlyBased on the same high-quality content and features that helped make irwin's Basic Engineering Circuit Analysis so Successful, a BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO CIRCUIT ANALYSIS gives students the content they need to develop a basic understanding of circuit analysis in a new, concise, highly-accessible format.HighlightsReal-world examples, applications sections, and reader-friendly explanations help motivate students.Special exercises and drill problems help students assess proper problemsolving techniques needed to solve chapter problems.A variety of end-of-chapter problems range from basic to advanced. Basic problems graduate in difficulty and are further subdivided and cross-referenced to chapter subsections. More advanced problems require the use of multiple techniques with no assistance.The text integrates op-amp coverage throughout where appropriate.Be a part of the solution!Circuit Solutions invites students to be part of the solution. This indispensable online problem-solving tool contains detailed hints, worked solutions, relevant concepts and theories, and answers for select end-of-chapter problems in A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO CIRCUIT ANALYSIS.Order your copy of Circuit solutions today at www.wiley.com/college/irwin, * Chapter selection covers all the necessary topics for a basicunderstanding of circuit analysis. Op-Amp coverage is integratedthroughout when appropriate in chapters 3,4,5 and 8. * Irwin does it better than any other text in the market Thisbrief text offers students the most accessible and provenpresentation of any circuit analysis text available. Throughreal-world examples and reader friendly explanations students willbe motivated to learn this topic . * Practice makes perfect. With the inclusion of many exampleproblems to the Applications sections throughout the text and theavailability of eGrade, an on-line quizzing function students willhave the opportunity to practice, practice, practice...that isuntil they get it right. * Are you concerned with how well your students are graspingconcepts? Special Exercises and drill problems help students assessproper problem-solving techniques needed to solve chapterproblems. * Options are always available Irwin offers a variety ofend-of-chapter problems that range from basic to advanced. Basicproblems, which graduate in difficulty are further subdivided andreferenced to chapter subsections while the more advanced problemsrequire the use of multiple techniques with no assistance. Alsoincluded are problems, which students would typically find on theFE Exam. * New Web-based learning - Circuit Solutions is an innovativeweb-based learning site available in conjunction with this text.Students walk through carefully produced solutions to select end ofchapter problems one step at a time. The site illustrates thenecessary concepts that should be applied when solving eachproblem. Important theories and definitions are highlightedthroughout the program, solidifying the key concepts taught in thebook., A concise introduction to circuit analysis designed to meet the needs of faculty who want to teach this material in a one semester course. Chapters have been carefully selected from Irwin, Basic Engineering Circuit Analysis , 7E.
