EET-240 DC/AC Circuits and Electronics III
DC/AC Circuits and Electronics III is a continuation of EET-142. The use of phasors to describe ac circuits is used for impedance and admittance calculations. The frequency response of an amplifier system is described. Active filters are introduced. Negative feedback and frequency compensation to avoid oscillations are explored. Sinusoidal oscillators are examined. AC power topics including true power, reactive power, apparent power, and power factor correction are covered. Class A, AB, and D power amplifiers are studied. Solid-state power switches are described. Linear and switching dc power supplies are studied. Electronic Design Automation is used extensively to simulate the circuits constructed in the laboratory. Laboratory activities include using oscilloscopes and signal generators. Students will be expected to use Microsoft Word and Excel to prepare their laboratory reports.
Prerequisite

EET-142 with a grade of C or higher, or instructor consent.
