Basic Electric Circuits, Second Edition details the underlying principle that governs the electric-circuit theory. The title provides problems and worked examples that supplement the discussion of applications of the ideas.
The text first deals with conducting and insulating materials, and then proceeds to talking about semiconductor junction devices. Next, the selection covers resistance, capacitance, and inductance, along with different kinds of circuitry. The title also discusses graphical methods, symbolic method of analysis, and elementary transmission-line analysis.
The book will be of great use to students of electrical engineering. The text will also serve as a reference material for professional engineers.
