ECE 2100: Circuit Analysis |
|||
Course Description |
|||
In this course you will learn to analize electrical circuits consisting of linear components such as resistors, capacitors, inductors and operational amplifiers. In doing this, we will use the classical techniques of Ohm, Kirchhoff, Thevinin and Norton. These techniques, along with the so-called network theorems, will provide a rich background in the study of electrical networks. Specifically, we will study circuits with direct current (DC) sources such as common batteries and alternating current (AC) sources as exemplified by the electricity available in everyday electrical outlets. This course will cover both steady-state and transient analysis of resistive, RL, RC and RLC circuits. Yes, it promises to be lots of work, but the reward in knowlege and practice in problem solving promises to be worth-while. |
