Features: This textbook is written for the "Circuit" course of undergraduate electrical engineering majors. It covers the basic requirements for circuit course teaching in higher education institutions, as set by the Teaching Guidance Committee of Electrical Engineering, and extends certain content. As a textbook for a fundamental technical course, it emphasizes the explanation and application of basic traditional content. The fundamental concepts, methods, and theorems are elaborated with considerable effort to ensure accuracy and clarity. It also includes some basic content of modern circuit theory. The book is divided into nineteen chapters and published in two volumes. The first volume contains thirteen chapters: Circuit Elements and Circuit Laws; Analysis Methods for Simple Resistive Circuits; General Analysis Methods for Linear Resistive Circuits; Some Theorems of Circuits; Nonlinear Resistive Circuits; First-Order Circuits; Second-Order and Higher-Order Circuits; Steady-State Analysis of Sinusoidal Current Circuits; Circuits with Mutual Inductance; Resonance in Circuits; Frequency Characteristics of Circuits; Three-Phase Circuits; Steady-State Response of Circuits to Periodic Excitation. The second volume contains six chapters: Fourier Transform and Laplace Transform; Two-Port Networks; Fundamentals of Network Graph Theory; State Variable Method; Introduction to Nonlinear Circuits; Distributed Parameter Circuits. There is also an appendix introducing magnetic circuits and coils with iron cores. Each chapter is accompanied by exercises, and answers are provided at the end of the book. This textbook is suitable for undergraduate electrical engineering majors in higher education institutions as the teaching material for the "Circuit" course, and can also serve as a reference book for engineering technicians working in fields such as power, electronics, automation, and computer science.
