This textbook provides a compact but comprehensive treatment that guides students through the analysis of circuits, using NI Multisim and MATLAB®. Ideal as a hands-on source for courses in Circuits, Electronics, Digital Logic and Power Electronics this text focuses on solving problems using market-standard software, corresponding to all key concepts covered in the classroom. The author uses his extensive classroom experience to guide students toward deeper understanding of key concepts, while they gain facility with software they will need to master for later studies and practical use in their engineering careers.
Essentials of MATLAB®: basic operations on real numbers; operations on
complex numbers; differentiation/integration; roots of equations; solution of
ordinary differential equations; Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), drawing
different types of graphs; control statements; optimization.- Essentials of
Simulink®: modelling of dynamical systems; circuit analysis.- Essentials of
Multisim: basic resistive circuits; first and second order circuits; diode
circuits (clamp circuit, rectifier, etc); amplifiers (common
base/emitter/collector, differential); calculation of gain, frequency
response, etc.); op-amp circuits (Filters, amplifiers, oscillators);
transmission lines and digital circuits.
