Experiments with Electric Circuits: Volume 1

Suitable for Electrical Engineering and Electrical Engineering Technology Programs. These manuals are being used at Portland Community College as a lab supplement to the text book: Electric Circuits by Nilsson and Riedel. Volume 1 contains 23 experiments: Ohm's and Kirchhoff's Laws, circuit theorems, voltage and current sources, transient response, steady-state ac circuits, ac power, transformers, power factor compensation, and 3-phase power. Includes PSpice and LTspice simulation examples, introduction to Maple, and example calculations using Maple, MATLAB, and the TI-89 calculator.
