Circuits overloaded from electric circuit analysis?
Many universities require that students pursuing a degree inelectrical or computer engineering take an Electric CircuitAnalysis course to determine who will "make the cut" and continuein the degree program. Circuit Analysis For Dummies willhelp these students to better understand electric circuit analysisby presenting the information in an effective and straightforwardmanner.
Circuit Analysis For Dummies gives you clear-cutinformation about the topics covered in an electric circuitanalysis courses to help further your understanding of the subject.By covering topics such as resistive circuits, Kirchhoff's laws,equivalent sub-circuits, and energy storage, this bookdistinguishes itself as the perfect aid for any student taking acircuit analysis course.
* Tracks to a typical electric circuit analysis course
* Serves as an excellent supplement to your circuit analysistext
* Helps you score high on exam day
Whether you're pursuing a degree in electrical or computerengineering or are simply interested in circuit analysis, you canenhance you knowledge of the subject with Circuit Analysis ForDummies.
