Using Electronics Workbench software as a learning tool to empower students to learn electronics at a more rapid pace, this interactive manual takes them from basic DC and AC series and parallel circuits to simulation of circuits using transformers, inductors, and capacitor. It includes numerous laboratory instrument exercises to enable students to use the oscillosope and function generator, and to get a much better understanding of adjusting the controls on the real equipment used in hands-on labs.
For courses in Electric Circuits. This unique and innovative laboratory manual helps students learn and understand circuit analysis concepts by using Electronic Workbench software to simulate actual laboratory experiments on a computer. Students work with circuits drawn on the computer screen and with simulated instruments that act like actual laboratory instruments. Circuits can be modified easily with on-screen editing, and analysis results provide fast, accurate feedback. "Hands-on" in approach throughout - in both interactive experiments and a series of questions about the results of each experiment - it is more cost effective, safer, and more thorough and efficient than using hardwired experiments. This lab manual can be sold for use with any DC/AC text. Note: This book no longer comes with a CD. Any reference to a CD within the book is out of date and will be updated on our next printing.

Power electronics can be a difficult course for students to understand and for professional professors to teach, simplifying the process for both. LTspice for power electronics and electrical power edition illustrates methods of integrating industry-standard LTspice software for design verification and as a theoretical laboratory bench. Helpful LTspice software and Program Files Available for Download Based on the author Muhammad H. Rashid’s considerable experience merging design content and SPICE into a power electronics course, this vastly improved and updated edition focuses on helping readers integrate the LTspice simulator with a minimum amount of time and effort. Giving users a better understanding of the operation of a power electronic circuit, the author explores the transient behavior of current and voltage waveforms for every circuit element at every stage. The book also includes examples of common types of power converters as well as circuits with linear and nonlinear inductors. New in this edition: Changes to run on OrCAD SPICE, or LTspice IV or higher Students’ learning outcomes (SLOs) listed at the start of each chapter Abstracts of chapters List the input side and output side performance parameters of the converters The characteristics of power semiconductors—diodes, BJTs, MOSFETs, and IGBTs Generating PWM and sinusoidal PWM gating signals Evaluating the power efficiency of converters Monte Carlo analysis of converters Worst-case analysis of converters Nonlinear transformer model Evaluate user-defined electrical quantities (.MEASURE) This book demonstrates techniques for executing power conversion and ensuring the quality of output waveform rather than the accurate modeling of power semiconductor devices. This approach benefits students, enabling them to compare classroom results obtained with simple switch models of devices.
