Thomas R.E., Rosa A.J., Toussaint G.J. The Analysis and Design of Linear Circuits

7th edition. — John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 2011. — 944 p. — ISBN: 978-1-118-06558-7.The new edition of Thomas' Analysis and Design of Linear Circuits features more skill examples, exercises, and associated problems. Specific topics emphasized are Thevenin Equivalent Circuits, Nodal and Mesh Analysis, Op-Amp Circuits, and Phasor Analysis. Furthermore the text is enhanced with great support to developing fundamental skills by adding similar-type skill problems. New and additional features include: additions to the IM containing worked-out solutions to many exercises; updated ABET section of the IM to reflect the latest changes to Criteria 2000; improved SM to include worked-out solutions showing key intermediate steps with rationale, and where appropriate, METLAB solutions.As an introduction to the analysis, design, and evaluation of Electric Circuits, this text focuses on developing the student’s design intuition and emphasizes the use of computers to assist in design and evaluation. Early introduction to circuit design motivates the student to create circuit solutions and optimize designs based on real-world constraints. Thomas/Rosa/Toussaint covers three major blocks in sixteen chapters. Chapters 1-4 cover dc circuits including dependent sources, the ideal Op Amp, and interface design. Chapters 5-12 cover ac circuits using both the traditional Phasor approach and a more efficient Laplace-early approach to include a signals chapter and transient and frequency responses in both the time and frequency domains. The last block deals with applications and extensions of the first two blocks covering Fourier Analysis (Ch 13), multipole active filters (Ch 14), coupled coils and transformers (Ch 15), ac power systems (Ch 16), and two-port networks (Ch 17). The text has over 350 worked examples followed by 422 exercises. Over a thousand homework problems ranging from elementary to complex are structured around a sequence of carefully defined learning objectives based on Bloom’s Taxonomy. This edition emphasizes computer-based analysis and design by expanding the number of examples, exercises, and problems using software for mathematical computation and circuit simulation.About This BookSymbols and Units.
