Steven T. Karris eBooks

This text has been superseded by the FOURTH EDITION which includes a comprehensive discussion on window functions and examples using the fft and ifft MATLAB functions. As in previous editions, this text is an introduction to continuous and discrete-time signals and systems. It contains numerous examples that are solved analytically and verified with the latest Student Versions of MATLAB. It is intended for electrical engineering majors. It can also be used for self-study. Freshman-level calculus and some elementary knowledge of differential equations is assumed. An introduction to MATLAB, Simulink, review of complex algebra, and matrices and determinan...

This text includes the following chapters and appendices: Common Number Systems and Conversions, Operations in Binary, Octal, and Hexadecimal Systems, Sign Magnitude and Floating Point Arithmetic, Binary Codes, Fundamentals of Boolean Algebra, Minterms and Maxterms, Combinational Logic Circuits, Sequential Logic Circuits, Memory Devices, Advanced Arithmetic and Logic Operations, Introduction to Field Programmable Devices, Introduction to the ABEL Hardware Description Language, Introduction to VHDL, Introduction to Verilog, and Introduction to Boundary-Scan Architecture. Each chapter contains numerous practical applications. This is a design-oriented te...

This text contains a comprehensive discussion on continuous and discrete time signals and systems with many MATLAB examples. It is written for junior and senior electrical and computer engineering students, and for self-study by working professionals. The prerequisites are a basic course in differential and integral calculus, and basic electric circuit theory. To get the most out of this text, it is highly recommended that Appendix A is thoroughly reviewed. This appendix serves as an introduction to MATLAB, and is intended for those who are not familiar with it. The Student Edition of MATLAB is an inexpensive, and yet a very powerful software package. ...
