ADVANCED ELECTRONICS III

Catalog description

This course is an introduction to the transient response analysis of RLC circuits. First, the computation of the transient response through classical differential equation techniques is covered. Next, Laplace transform techniques are studied, unifying both the transient and frequency response techniques. Then, Fourier analysis techniques are introduced to familiarize the students with the fundamentals of signal analysis. Finally, the State Variable technique is used to compute the transient response of RLC networks. Throughout the course, the lectures are supported by experimental work that make use of the hardware and computer-aided facilities available in the program. Prerequisite: MATH-170 and instructor approval.
