Synopsis

For courses in DC Circuits, AC Circuits, and Electronic Devices.

Developed to address the need for a text that allows the fundamentals to be covered in reduced time, this unique text provides complete and concise coverage of the fundamentals of electronics without redundant examples and the equation derivations that take up so much space in traditional books. With an emphasis on component and circuit operation, analysis, applications, and testing, this text thoroughly explores the foundation of dc circuits, ac circuits, discrete electronic devices and op-amps in a narrative that students can understand. Revamped with a new four-color illustration and photo design, the Second Edition offers an updated pedagogical package that includes chapter opening vignettes, new margin notes, and component testing and applications discussions.
