Course Description:

This course is designed to provide the student with the skills required to analyze electrical circuits in both the frequency and time domains. It will focus on the understanding of current concepts in alternating current and currently accepted concepts in the application of the LaPlace Transform to solve electrical circuits with multiple energy storage devices for such circuit parameters as voltage, current and power. 

Instructional Objectives:

By the end of this course, the student will be able to:
 
• Have a working knowledge of sinusoidal sources, phase angle, circuit solutions using complex trigonometric functions and the LaPlace Transform and their application to circuit reduction techniques
• Apply alternating current circuit analysis techniques to circuits consisting of passive and active electrical elements, electrical storage devices and the operational amplifier.
• Perform alternating current analysis of passive circuits and transient response of circuits with multiple energy storage elements (capacitors and inductors) 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
