Course Description:
This course is designed to provide the student with the skills required
to analyze electrical circuits. It will focus on the understanding of current
concepts in element definition and currently accepted concepts in the application
of the circuit parameters; voltage, current and power.
Instructional Objectives:
By the end of this course, the student will be able to:
-
Have a working knowledge of Ohm's Law, Kirchoff's Laws, Thevenin and Norton
equivalent circuits and circuit reduction techniques
-
Apply circuit analysis techniques to circuits consisting of passive electrical
elements and the operational amplifier.
-
Perform direct current analysis of passive circuits and transient response
of circuits with a single energy storage element (capacitor or inductor)
solve these equations for simple geometries using analytical techniques
-
Perform circuit simulations with Mentorgraphics and/or PSpice
-
Use MATLAB for laboratory and homework assignments as a supplement to direct
calculations
Semester Hours: 2
