Electric Circuits Fundamentals

by Sergio Franco

Book Overview

This exciting new text teaches the foundations of electric circuits and develops a thinking style and a problem-solving methodology that is based on physical insight. Designed for the first course or sequence in circuits in electrical engineering, the approach imparts not only an appreciation for the elegance of the mathematics of circuit theory, but a genuine "feel" for a circuit's physical operation. This will benefit students not only in the rest...

Excellent Text Still Available

This excellent circuits textbook is still available at: Sergio Franco, Electric Circuits Fundamentals, Oxford University Press. In my opinion, this is one of the finest circuits textbooks for undergraduate electrical engineering students currently in print. Dr. Franco thoroughly and clearly covers the fundamentals of electric circuits. In addition, to provide students with physical picture as to how circuits work, he includes several interesting applications of circuits throughout the text. Dr. Franco thoroughly covers operational amplifiers, ac resonance, and complex frequency, subjects often slighted in newer texts on electric circuits fundamentals. The technical quality and writing style of this text are excellent. Finally, throughout the text there are essays/interviews on the electrical engineering profession; these will be helpful to students who are unsure about the electrical engineering profession as a career.
