EGR-231 Engineering Circuit Analysis

Engineering Circuit Analysis provides an introduction to electric circuits. circuit topologies including series, parallel, series-parallel, and non-planar circuits are explained. Fundamental circuit elements are studied including resistance, capacitance, self-and mutual-inductance, constant-voltage sources, constant-current sources, and controlled sources. Magnetism as it relates to self-and mutual-inductance is described. Basic law and theorems are applied. Specifically, Ohm's law, Kirchhoff's Voltage Law and Kirchhoff's Current Law are described and applied. Mesh and nodal analysis are used. DC and sinusoidal steady-state circuits using the phasor concept are introduced. Time-domain and analysis of R-L-C circuits is covered as well as an introduction to Laplace transforms.
