Circuit diagrams are colored coded which help the novice separate the circuit components into different types and functionality. To solve it fast and correctly, the authors sets the methods as easier and perfectly. Nilsson uses all black lines which to me are not definitive enough. For help the students this edition also useful for engineering student.
The authors' descriptions of common analog components such as the resistor, capacitor, inductor, and voltage sources are interesting and help supplement the macroscopic perspective used in solving and understanding linear circuit problems.
Problems have solved for practice and the clear course can help the students to solve them easily by their hand. The helpful to support the software in MatLab, graphing, programmable else.
Now the 4th edition of Fundamentals of Electric Circuits has released to free get. Anyway it keep in book store but out of this the students can use this edition with eLibrary.
