New to the third edition is Connect with SmartBook 2.0!
New to the third edition is Connect with SmartBook 2.0!
New to this edition is the Simulation Lab Manual that accompanies the text. Available through McGraw-Hill Connect, it features more than 250 Multisim simulated lab exercises integrated into each chapter of the text.
Each Multisim circuit file comes complete with on- screen detailed instructions for carrying out circuit simulation problems and exercises.
All lab components have been preselected and with their required values requiring a minimum of setup. Students spend more time experimenting rather than selecting, dragging, and assigning values to components.
On-screen formulas and graphics from the text are designed to integrate the material covered in the text with the simulation assignment.
For this edition, Multisim labs have been created to operate using National Instruments’ NI Multisim Student Edition Version 12 or higher.
Note: Multisim software must be purchased separately.
Full Color! This textbook is printed in full-color with a format that makes it easier for students to navigate through the content.
Material has been added to each chapter to provide more up-to-date, relevant, and broader-based approach to the subject matter.
Enhanced resources for students and instructors. Connect contains hundreds of questions that students can use to check their understanding of the chapter material. Instructors will have access to a Solutions Manual, Test Bank, and PowerPoint presentations for every chapter.
McGraw-Hill Education Connect is a digital teaching and learning environment that improves performance over a variety of critical outcomes; it is easy to use; and it is proven effective.
Available within McGraw-Hill Education’s Connect, SmartBook2.0 makes study time as productive and efficient as possible.
