Problems in Basic Electronics: Volume I: Circuits in direct and alternating currents (Solved Problems in Electronics)

Product Description

This book includes a collection of 100 university-level problems that are completely solved, explained, and commented upon. These problems cover the fundamental concepts of basic electronics related to both direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC). The book is specifically tailored for first-year engineering students and those pursuing technical careers (such as Telecommunications, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Electronics, etc.) who need to study subjects that include a portion of circuit analysis in their curriculum.Each problem is accompanied by a classification based on its level of difficulty (basic, intermediate, or advanced), as well as an indication of the content involved in its resolution. Throughout the pages, you’ll encounter problems that address the following aspects:Use and handling of resistors, capacitors, and coils in circuits.Dependent/independent voltage and current sources.Kirchhoff’s methods for circuit analysis: nodal and mesh analysis.Power calculations.Superposition principle.Source transformations.Thevenin and Norton equivalents.Transfer functions.Bode diagrams and filters.Additionally, the book includes an appendix that serves as a reminder of the key properties and rules for using complex numbers, which will be useful in the chapter dedicated to alternating current.
