Fundamentals of Electric Circuits

Over seven editions, Fundamentals of Electric Circuits, by Charles Alexander and Matthew Sadiku has become the definitive introductory for students and professors. It presents circuit analysis in a manner that is clearer, more interesting, and easier to understand than other texts. In fact, when students are given the opportunity to choose a circuit text from a variety of such texts, they choose Alexander and Sadiku’s! Salient Features: 1. Problem-Solving Methodology. A six-step method for solving circuits problems is used consistently throughout the book to promote best-practice problem-solving procedures. 2. Worked Examples. Thoroughly worked examples are given at the end of every section to give students a solid understanding of the solution process and the confidence to solve problems themselves. 3. Application Sections. The last section in each chapter is devoted to practical application aspects of the concepts covered in the chapter to help students see how the concepts are applied to real-life situations. 4. Homework Problems. More than 500 new and revised end-of-chapter problems to provide students with plenty of practice and reinforce key concepts. 5. Online Workbook. Problem Solving Made Almost Easy is a companion workbook and is available for students online. It contains a discussion of problem-solving strategies and 150 additional problems with complete solutions provided. 6. Computer Tools - In recognition of the requirements by ABET on integrating Computer tools, the use of PSpice, Multisim, MATLAB, etc. are encouraged in a student friendly manner
