Description
Luis Moura and Izzat Darwazeh introduce linear circuit modelling and analysis applied to both electrical and electronic circuits, starting
with DC and progressing up to RF, considering noise analysis along the way.
Avoiding the tendency of current textbooks to focus either
on the basic electrical circuit analysis theory (DC and low frequency AC frequency range), on RF circuit analysis theory, or on noise
analysis, the authors combine these subjects into the one volume to provide a comprehensive set of the main techniques for the analysis
of electric circuits in these areas.
Taking the subject from a modelling angle, this text brings together the most common and traditional
circuit analysis techniques (e.g. phasor analysis) with system and signal theory (e.g. the concept of system and transfer function),
so students can apply the theory for analysis, as well as modelling of noise, in a broad range of electronic circuits.
A highly student-focused
text, each chapter contains exercises, worked examples and end of chapter problems, with an additional glossary and bibliography for
reference. A balance between concepts and applications is maintained throughout.
The book is also supported by a companion website,
featuring a full solutions manual, additional equations, graphs and illustrations for Lecturers to download when preparing teaching aids,
as well as numerous case studies, worked examples and exercises using MATLAB to aid student learning.
Luis Moura is a Lecturer in
Electronics at the University of Algarve. Izzat Darwazeh is Senior Lecturer in Telecommunications at University College, London, previously
at UMIST.
Audience:
Introductory / intermediate undergraduates on electrical and electronic engineering courses world-wide. Some secondary market on computing and physics courses.
