Electric Circuits 1 EQUP 2307

Course description:

Definitions and units. Experimental laws and simple circuits. Techniques of circuit analysis. Inductance and capacitance. Source-free RL and RC circuits. Applications. The Unit-step forcing functions. RLC circuits.

Course Aims:

Course seeks to enable students to achieve the following objectives:

  • Identify linear systems and represent those systems in schematic form,
  • Apply Kirchhoff's current and voltage laws and Ohm's law to circuit problems,
  • Simplify circuits using series and parallel equivalents and using Thevenin and Norton equivalents,
  • Perform node and loop analyses and set these up in standard matrix format,
  • Identify and model first and second order electric systems involving capacitors and inductors,
  • Predict the transient behavior of first and second order circuits.

Course outcomes:

Upon completion of this course, student will be able to:

  • Provide the students the skills to analyze the electric circuits
  • Design and be able to correct and find the mistakes in the circuits.
