ABOUT BOOK : REVIEW

PROS : 

• This book starts from the root level that is it will boost the concepts from basic current, voltage phenomenon and their physical significance.

• it covers all the main topics which are included in the syllabus of both IES and GATE.

• it also covers some concept of analog circuits as well as control systems

• the best feature of this book is that it covers so much of examples of each and every topic which make this book very handy to a learner or beginer

• this book consists of three parts namely DC circuits , AC circuit and Advanced circuit analysis

• DC circuit part consists of  basic theorems , operational amplifiers , second order circuit analysis along with behavior of capacitors and inductors.

• AC circuit part explains three phase circuit AC circuits and their behavior and frequency response

• part 3 deals with Fourier transform Laplace transform Fourier series and TWO PORT network in a whole new interesting way.

• it also supports software simulations such as MATLAB

• the main highlight of this book is its simplicity i.e. it is written in a way that a college beginner will also be able to excel in confusing subject like NETWORKS.

NOW CONS OF THIS BOOK :

• the one and only con of this book is it does not explains the NETWORK SYNTHESIS part which i really miss.

AVAILABILITY :

• this book is freely available over internet in different editions to download this book i have mentioned a link here

MAIN FEATURES : (PROS)

please comment, if you find any thing helpful in this post.
