Description

For undergraduate introductory or survey courses in electrical engineering.

 

This reliable text helps students learn electrical-engineering fundamentals with minimal frustration. Its goals are to present basic concepts in a general setting, to show students how the principles of electrical engineering apply to specific problems in their own fields, and to enhance the overall learning process. Circuit analysis, digital systems, electronics, and electromechanics are covered. A wide variety of pedagogical features stimulate student interest and engender awareness of the material’s relevance to their chosen profession.


Features

•  Chapter-opening learning objectives

 

•  Short, boxed articles interspersed throughout—Shows how basic electrical engineering concepts are applied in other engineering fields. Illustrates the importance of electrical engineering concepts in other fields.

        —   Global Positioning System in surveying

        —   Cardiac Pacemaker

        –     RFID tags in fish-migration studies

 

•   Step-by-step problem solving procedures.

 

•   Key Equations — Highlighted in the book and included as PDF files on both CDs.     

 

•  Two CD-ROMs packaged with text:

        — Contains LabVIEW 8 Student Edition, the industry standard software for engineering instrumentation and testing

        — Orcad Family Release, a powerful suite of programs for circuit analysis and design.

        — The Orcad CD also contains circuit files discussed in the book, solutions to the in-chapter exercises, answers to selected end-of-chapter problems, and summaries of key equations for each chapter.

 


New To This Edition

•   Approximately 40% new end-of-chapter problems — In addition to modifications to many of the existing problems.

 

•   Revised and updated coverage of Logic Circuits (Chapter 7):

        — Adds discussion of logic ranges and noise

        — Modifies discussions of Gray codes and Karnaugh maps to be more consistent with common usage

        — Added examples to illustrate how to find the minimum SOP and POS forms of a logic function.

 

•   Updated chapter on Computer-Based Instrumentation Systems (Chapter 9) to include the latest version of LabVIEW.

 

•   Updated chapter on FETs (Ch. 12)

        — Includes a brief discussion of channel-length modulation and charge-carrier-velocity saturation.

        — Discussion of RFID tags and how they are used in fish-migration research (Practical Application 12.1.)

 

•   Appendix C - Updates material to reflect the current content of the FE Examination.

 

•   Appendix D - Updated for newest version of OrCAD software (PSpice)
