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.
