Circuits and Networks

Description

This second edition of Circuits and Networks: Analysis, Design, and Synthesis serves as a textbook for the undergraduate students of electrical, electronics, and instrumentation engineering. The new approach using MATLAB-based problem solving enhances the book’s utility among professionals and practitioners as well as for laboratory-based learning.

The new edition is succinct in its method of explanation and provides increased number of solved examples for better understanding of concepts. It introduces new topics such as Bode plots, four-wire systems, and composite filters in a very lucid manner that enhances the overall coverage of the book. The vast number of numerical problems, neat circuit diagrams, and applications of various tools and techniques continue to be the best pedagogical features of this book. This book is an invaluable comprehensive resource for students, faculty, and professionals.

Reviews

The book provides a good knowledge base … ‘Three Phase Circuits’ and ‘Problems based on Mesh and Nodal Analysis’ are the best explained topics of the book.
- Dr S. Nagarajan (Professor and Head, Jerusalem College of Engineering, Chennai)

Basics are very clearly explained in this textbook. Every student can easily understand the subject. Solved problems are very helpful to practice.
