Electrical Circuit Theory and Technology

A complete text for first year Circuit Theory modules.First year degree students come from diverse backgrounds. High school courses may have barely touched on circuit theory, while vocational courses may have had less maths content. This book bridges these differences by building from the basics required at technician level through to full coverage of a first year degree module. Whatever a first year course may take as its starting point, this book includes sufficient background material for all students to get up to speed with a minimum of pain! Learning progression at technician-level.This is a text that will grow with your students. The relevant units for Advanced GNVQ and BTEC National are fully covered here, as is the Electrical Principles and Technology content of HNC and HND programmes. Students are encouraged to build up their own knowledge and understanding through a book which is both cost-effective, and will provide a valuable reference source in future work or higher studies.Written for students.John Bird's technique of 'learning through examples' is a practical approach which enables students to grasp key techniques and principles without abstruse theoretical explanation. Numerous problems are provided with answers supplied.FREE instructor's manual for adopting lecturers.The textbook includes a test at the end of each section which can either be used for revision or classroom assessment. The free instructor's manual provides fully worked solutions for all these questions, as well as photocopiable formula sheets.
