Basic topics included are: the Kirchhoff laws, an introduction to time domain, the sinusoidal steady state and the concept of impedance, Fourier methods, and the operational amplifier or "op amp". This book features numerous examples, exercises, and end-of-chapter problems, includes the development of Bode plots, stresses concepts rather than mathematical developments, and topics essential to electric circuits.

This classic was the first to fill the need for an undergraduate text in analog filters for electrical engineering. Intended for juniors and seniors with a background in introductory circuits, including Laplace transforms, the text focuses on inductorless filters in which the active element is the operational amplifier (op-amp). Passive LCR filters are excluded except as prototypes from which an active equivalent is then found. Students learn the importance of op-amps to analog systems, which Van Valkenburg equates with the significance of the microprocessor to digital systems. Because the book is inteded for undergraduates, sophisticated mathematics has been avoided wherever possible in favor of algebraic derivations. Design topics require at most a hand-held calculator.

This book presents a lucid treatment of topics essential to an understanding of modern methods of network synthesis. Along with information theory, automatic control theory and automatic computation, network synthesis has become an essential subject for electrical engineers wishing to understand the literature and advanced practice. The book begin's with a study of Brune's positive real functions, followed by an enumeration of synthesis procedures for LC, RC, RL and RLC one terminal-pair networks. The important subject of approximation is treated in two chapters; another chapter explores the relationship of network functions. The remainder of the book is devoted to methods for the synthesis of two terminal-pair networks, including the Cauer ladder development, the Guillemin and Darlington methods, and the synthesis of networks by the image-parameter method.
