Publisher's Synopsis
A treatment of the major aspects of circuit analysis is offered in this book. Simple ideas are developed into broader concepts - for example, Thevenin's theorem is introduced via a preliminary example of conventional analysis. Discussion of state variables, presented early in the text, gives physical meaning to the mathematical development. Superposition is presented as a unifying principle in discussions of the formulation of loop, node, and state equations, Thevenin's theorem, convolution, Fourier series analysis and zero state responses. An introduction is given to frequency response, filters and resonance from several points of view. Also included is treatment of stability and a presentation of basic graph theory which facilitates systematic formulation of network equations, their sufficiency and solvability. The book contains solved examples, end-of-chapter problems, and tables of trigonometric functions, integrals, and transforms.
