Circuit Analysis/Design I/Lab

Catalog description

This is the first course of a two-course sequence in circuit analysis required for all Electrical Engineering Transfer Option students. An introduction to electric circuits is presented, and circuits under continuous current are resolved. Basic circuit components(resistance, capacitance, inductance, and operational amplifiers) are introduced. Various analysis methods are investigated, including Nodal, Mesh and Thevenin Equivalent Circuits. First-order RL, and RC, as well as second-order RLC circuit responses are analyzed as a function of different initial conditions. This course contains a laboratory component that is complimentary to the theory. MEETING DETAILS:3 hrs lec; 3 hrs lab
