About your course materials

Introduce your students to electric circuits with common design practices and simulations when you use Kang’s ELECTRIC CIRCUITS. This engaging book presents the fundamental concepts of electric circuits alongside examples, exercises and problems. Fresh examples provide students with clear methods for understanding how electric circuits function. Each chapter includes several examples and problems related to circuit design with answers provided for the odd-numbered questions. This allows students to use the questions for self-guided study and practice. ELECTRIC CIRCUITS offers comprehensive coverage, from DC circuits and AC circuits to Laplace transformed circuits. MATLAB® scripts for certain examples provide an alternate method for solving circuit problems and give students an effective tool for checking answers and reducing laborious derivations and calculations. The book also includes PSpice® and Simulink® examples to demonstrate electric circuit simulations.

Frequently asked questions

How do I enroll in or join my course?

Your instructor will tell you how to access your course. You may join through your school’s LMS, a course link or a course key. If you’re unsure which method to use, check with your instructor.

How do I redeem an access code, or what if my code isn't working?

Sign in to your Cengage account and select Enter Access Code or Course Key, then enter your access code and select Register. If your code is damaged, missing or still doesn't work, contact Cengage Support.

Why can't I access my course?

How you access your course depends on how your instructor set it up. Start from your LMS, course link or course key. If you've purchased access but still can't open the course, Cengage Help can help you troubleshoot your access.

Where can I find my eBook or textbook?

You can access available eBooks from your Cengage student dashboard or from your Cengage course. If your class uses an LMS, your instructor may also provide access there.

What if I don't have access to my course materials yet?

Temporary access may be available for some Cengage courses. If offered, you can use your course during the grace period and purchase or register your access code before it ends. Options for expired access vary by product.

The book also includes PSpice® and Simulink® examples to demonstrate electric circuit simulations.

CHAPTER SUMMARIES AND REVIEWS HIGHLIGHT KEY POINTS. Each chapter begins with a chapter summary that emphasizes the key points that follow in the chapter. Every chapter then ends with a concise review of the fundamental concepts that the author presented.

SIMPLE, INTUITIVE PRESENTATION CLEARLY EXPLAINS CONCEPTS. The author presents topics using a straightforward, intuitive approach followed by memorable examples and practical exercises. The examples and exercises reinforce learning by starting with simple questions and then moving to more challenging questions as students gain confidence. The solutions to the questions used in the examples are detailed so that students can check their understanding.

MATLAB® SCRIPTS HIGHLIGHT ALTERNATIVE METHODS FOR SOLVING CIRCUIT PROBLEMS. This efficient tool is provided for certain examples as an alternate method to solve circuit problems. MATLAB® is a tool that can be used effectively in checking answers and reducing laborious derivations and calculations.

EXAMPLES UTILIZE PSPICE® AND SIMULINK® TO DEMONSTRATE CIRCUIT SIMULATION. Each chapter includes examples that provide students with hands-on practice using these professional tools.
