Free books or learning tools for electrical engineering?

In summary, there are several free resources available for learning electrical engineering. These include the textbook "Basic Engineering Circuit Analysis" by J. DAVID IRWIN, "An Introduction to Semiconductor Principle" by Donald Neaman, and open courses from MIT and other universities. Additionally, there are free e-books and online resources such as Walt Jung's "Op Amp Applications Handbook" and a list of electrical engineering books on the e-books directory. These resources can be valuable tools for students or anyone interested in learning more about electrical engineering.

i think "Basic Engineering Circuit Analysis by J. DAVID IRWIN (9th Edition)" is best textbook of EE

Also, You had better reading "An introduction to semiconductor principle by Donald Neaman 3rd edition"

It is gift for Electrical engineering student.

MIT opened up a number of their courses to everyone for free awhile ago, so I would start there. Each course has a different amount of stuff--some have video lectures, some just homework sets--but I've used a few for physics and they were great. Many other universities have opened up course work for free as well with different platforms. Below is a link to some of MIT's ee courses.
