Introduction to Circuit Analysis
Course Description
This course introduces the analysis of linear circuits; first- and second-order differential equations describing RLC circuits; the natural and forced response of simple circuits; the development of steady-state sinusoidal circuit analysis for the network differential equations; and the study of Thevenin, Norton, and operational amplifiers.
Student Learning Outcomes
- Analyze circuits containing resistive, capacitive, inductive passive elements, along with op-amps interconnected to voltage and current sources.
- Use circuit laws and network theorems to solve DC steady state circuits, RC, RL, and RLC DC circuit transients and sinusoidal AC steady state circuits.
