Introduction

Welcome to the DC Electrical Circuits Workbook, an open educational resource (OER). The goal of this

workbook is to provide a large number of problems and exercises in the area of DC electrical circuits to

supplement or replace the exercises found in textbooks. It is offered free of charge under a Creative Commons

non-commercial, share-alike with attribution license. This workbook has been replaced by the new text, DC

Electrical Circuit Analysis, also OER. The new text features greatly expanded explanations and example

material. As such, this workbook will no longer be updated.

The workbook is split into several sections, each with an overview and review of the basic concepts and issues

addressed in that section. These are followed by the exercises which are generally divided into four major types:

analysis, design, challenge and simulation. Many SPICE-based circuit simulators are available, both free and

commercial, that can be used with this workbook. The answers to most odd-numbered exercises can be found in

the Appendix. A table of standard resistor sizes is also in the Appendix, which is useful for real-world design

problems. Version 1.1 adds material on dependent sources in Section 6 as well as exercises that can make use of

supernode/supermesh techniques. If you have any questions regarding this workbook, or are interested in

contributing to the project, do not hesitate to contact me.

This workbook is part of a series of OER titles in the areas of electricity, electronics, audio and computer

programming. It includes five textbooks covering DC and AC circuit analysis, semiconductor devices,

operational amplifiers, and embedded programming using the C language with the Arduino platform. There are

seven laboratory manuals; one for each of the aforementioned texts plus computer programming using the

Python language, and the science of sound. The most recent versions of all of my OER texts and manuals may be

found at my MVCC web site as well as my mirror site:

This workbook was created using several free and open software applications including Open Office, Dia, and

XnView.
