Basic AC Circuits, 2nd Edition

Basic AC Circuits, 2/E is a step-by-step approach to AC circuit technology for the beginning student, hobbyist, technician, or engineer. The book is built into a series of self-paced, individualized learning goals covering electronics concepts, terms and the mathematics required to fully understand AC circuit problems--simple or complex. Each chapter includes learning objectives, fully-illustrated examples, practice problems and quizzes providing teachers, trainers and students a complete AC technology resource. Basic AC Circuits, 2/E has been a staple of the electronics educational market since 1981, but in the new edition the author has updated the book to reflect changes in technology, especially the test equipment available today.

Basic AC Circuits has been a keystone for curriculum plans around the country for nearly two decades. This book was originally part of the Texas Instruments series published by Sams Publishing.

Provides a fully-revised introduction to AC circuit technology that includes full examples, practice problems and quizzes to measure learning.
Includes the mathematics training for AC circuit design that so many technicians and engineers are missing.
Written in an easy-to-read and follow format with many illustrations, examples, and hands-on practice.

Engineering Electromagnetics, 6th Ed

Engineering Electromagnetics" is a classic in Electrical Engineering textbook publishing. First published in 1958 it quickly became a standard and has been a best-selling book for over 4 decades. A new co-author from Georgia Tech has come aboard for the sixth edition to help update the book. Designed for introductory courses in electromagnetics or electromagnetic field theory at the junior-level and offered in departments of electrical engineering, the text is a widely respected, updated version that stresses fundamentals and problem solving and discusses the material in an understandable, readable way. As in the previous editions, the book retains the scope and emphasis that have made the book very successful while updating all the problems.

Portable B2 Spice V5.1.8

Over 2 years in development here's an overview of what this version offers. Features that were formerly found only in programs costing much more, plus features that other packages don't have. Our goal was to give you as much function for your money as possible.

Redesigned User Interface: Toolbar, tab, and button driven for more intuitive control - fewer obscure menu commands to control program.

Virtual Instruments: Function generators, oscilloscope, ammeter, voltmeter, wattmeter, distortion meters, and MORE...

Live Circuit: Parameters that can be altered as a simulation is running. Results displayed on virtual instruments or on the schematic via circuit animation.

NEW Parts Palette: Fill it up with your most commonly used parts for quick access.

Realtime Simulation Mode: Continuous transient simulation - see changes as they happen.

Multiple Level Tests: Multiple parameter sweeps or Monte Carlo sweeps in ANY test.

Real-World Parts: Devices model performance of actual parts such as capacitors, resistors, and inductors.

Circuit Wizard: Step you through the creation of the most commonly used circuit configurations - fast and really useful.

Graphing Module: Complete control over all aspects of the graph with 2D and 3D views.

Easy View: Tabbed window projects to keep all the documents in a project in one Window.

Plus everything the previous versions were capable of:

*Custom plots- add your own plots using our library of mathematical functions.

*3D views.

*Combine plots and digital signals from any other graph, circuit, or simulation result.

*Optional independent graphs for each signal.

*Precise measurements between any two points on a graph - click one to mark the first point and hold and drag the mouse. The X and Y difference are displayed at the bottom of the legend.

*Show next maximum and minimum and zero crossing command locates and labels these points on the plot.

*Log for both X and Y axes.

*Selectable graph fonts and plot colours.

*Custom zoom.

*Independent plotting scales.

"Deep" subcircuit plotting.

*Signal family grouping.

Now you can see exactly what you want to see displayed the way that you want to see it. A complete range of new function generators, scopes and other instruments allow you to see exactly what you want to quickly and easily.

Success Builder Trigonometry

Reviewed by Engr. Michael L. Zarco
Published by The Learning Company

Age Group: Adults
Type: Math
Price: $40.00 US


Description:

Success Builder Trigonometry encourages the student to explore and learn instead of adhering to a linear learning path. This provides advantages and disadvantages. Success Builder Trigonometry is better suited to students needing extra time on the subject, or perhaps even tutoring. It would be quite difficult to learn trigonometry using just this title. However, as a supplemental device, Success Builder Trigonometry offers obvious advantages. Success Builder Trigonometry is more like a reference encyclopedia than a textbook, and as an encyclopedia differs from a textbook.

Features:

*Great interface
*Easy exploration
*Thorough and exhaustive content
*Best suited for tutorial needs, not courseware

Technical Aspects:

This program installed easily and ran without any discernable glitches.

Report and Conclusions:

I found many standout features of Success Builder Trigonometry, but chief among them were the tips that only an experienced tutor could offer, such as mnemonics for remembering the difference between sin, cos, and tan. These small hints are sometimes what helps a C student turn into a B student. The explanations were thorough and repetitive. A student who doesn't understand a concept benefits from the various explanations offered.

I also liked quiz delivery. In multiple-choice questions, the right or wrong answer is immediately identified. If you guess wrong, you can keep trying until you find the correct answer. If you find you don't know the concepts as well as you thought you did, you can easily jump back to the relative instructional content.

Through exploration and short quizzes, the student gains a better knowledge of the subject matter. I found the content to be, at times, overwhelming in its delivery and visual complexity. I'm not wanting dumbed-down material, but bite-sized morsels instead of full meals.

Even though this title aims squarely at self discovery, I found the open-ended material somewhat dubious. A student lacking motivation will find it impossibly easy to say "Yes Mom, I already finished going through that program." I would have liked the option of leading the students through a set of material instead of counting on their own self-discipline and learning ability. More mature students may not find this a hurdle (really, how many 13-year old kids are taking Trigonometry anyway?).

I loved this title, and I think you will too. If you or your child needs help with trigonometry, buy this title. I don't see much value in this title for educators; For tutorial and supplemental learning, I recommend Success Builder Trigonometry.
