Publisher's Synopsis
Providing a practical, hands-on approach to the subject by encouraging students to be active participants in learning the material, this text provides performance-based objectives to enable the students to measure their own progress by informing them what they are expected to be able to do as a result of their studies. Objective Identifiers in the margins are cross-referenced with the material in each chapter which helps students to quickly locate material that will help them fulfill a given objective. Margin Notes include a running glossary of new terms, notes that highlight the difference between theory and practice, and reminders of principles covered in earlier chapters. In-chapter practice problems in the examples provide students with an immediate opportunity to apply the demonstrated principles and Summary Illustrations provide a convenient summary of circuit operating principles and applications. There are also Brain Drain problems at the end of every chapter.
