This university level text is for anyone who wants to know how to analyze and, in time, design electric and then electronic circuits with transistors in the next text in our series.
The text includes experiments that give life to the text’s contents, and provide you with real world experience.
\This text gets the EE101 job done in about 300 pages at a reasonable price.
Once you have made your way through this text you will be able to do a node or mesh analysis of any linear circuit, while understanding resistors R, capacitors C, inductors L, transformers & mutual inductance M, as well as independent and dependent sources of current and voltage.
Furthermore design examples and procedures begin to show you the way to what really matters - being able to design.
You do not have to know anything about electricity to use this text, because the text starts with the brilliant experiments that discovered electricity, which revealed that electricity is charge q at rest and in motion. The experiments started up what has become the electronics business.
Then we show that there are two basic classes of laws (1) connection constraints, which are Kirchhoffs' laws showing how currents and voltages in any circuit relate to each other and (2) voltage-current vi constraints for resistors, capacitors and inductors showing how current relates to voltage in each component.
We explain capacitors C and inductors L as we derive their simple differential equation voltage-current constraints, which escalate the math required to the calculus.
Transformers based on mutual inductance M are explained as we derive their equivalent circuits and frequency response.
Two general analysis methods, node and mesh, are presented so that you can analyze any circuit. The node method is based on Kirchhoff’s current connection constraint law, and the mesh method is based on Kirchhoff’s voltage connection constraint law.
We show how to use the Laplace Transform Method to find any circuit's frequency response as well as the transient response. We show how straightforward the Laplace Transform is to use.
Frequency responses are important, because many circuit design goals are a specified over a range of frequencies.
Transient response shows how a circuit responds to signals.
Hendrick Bode invented a widely adopted method for making graphical displays of the magnitude and phase of the electric circuit frequency response equations generated by the Laplace Transform.
Here is something we have yet to see in any book. The reactance chart is a graphical display of the impedance magnitude of R, L, and C components over a frequency range. The log-log scales span many decades of magnitude and frequency on one page. We show how to use this eminently practical chart for making estimates and selecting "in the ballpark" values for components appropriate to the problem at hand.
We give the simulation program Spice a significant role in the text. Spice does the nitty gritty numerical calculations and data plotting for you. Spice is used in most chapters to calculate results and plot data. Spice has an important role in the modern design process.
Many useful ideas and important topics are found in the Appendix.
The good news is that a mathematical theory for analysis and synthesis is available. The mathematics takes several forms. There is the traditional form of written mathematics. There is Spice, a software form, using mathematics behind the scenes to evaluate circuit performance. And, there are Bode diagrams and Reactance charts that are graphical forms that convert electric circuit mathematics into comprehensible displays. We use all of these forms in the text.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to GreatBookPrices, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
