Course Description
|
The course is designed to serve as a first year course in the undergraduate electrical and electronics engineering curriculum. Hence, it is in the core of department subjects required for all undergraduates in electrical and electronics engineering.
The course introduces the fundamentals of lumped electric circuits. The topics covered include: circuit variables and elements, simple resistive circuits, techniques of circuit analysis, operational amplifiers, inductance, capacitance, mutual inductance, response of first order RL and RC circuits, natural and step responses of RLC circuits, sinusoidal steady- state analysis and applications. Homework and design exercises are also significant components of the course.

Course Objectives
|
The course is about making an introduction to the field of Electrical & Electronics Engineering. Therefore, its objective is to provide the first principles of electric circuit analysis to the electrical and electronics engineering majors.
• Students learn the fundamental laws associated with circuit analysis and apply them to design and analysis of circuits. This includes nodal analysis, mesh analysis, Ohm's law, power analysis, and transient and steady state frequency response.
• Students will attend to problem solving sessions, where they receive additional instruction related to analysis and design tasks.
• Students solve, characterize, and study circuits’ problems, behaviors, and frequency responses respectively.
• Students also learn circuits’ elements and circuit analysis techniques throughout semester.

On successful completion of this course, students will
- Know and be able to use SI units, the definitions of voltage, current, power and energy.
- Understand the symbols for and behavior of the ideal basic circuit elements.
- Be able to state Ohm’s law, Kirchoff’s laws and be able to use them to analyze simple circuits.
- Know to solve equivalent resistance, design voltage divider and current divider, measure resistance with Wheatstone bridge, use delta-to-wye equivalent circuits.
- Understand and be able to use the node-voltage and mesh-current methods, source transformation, Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuits, maximum power transfer.
- Be able to analyze simple circuits containing ideal opamps, and recognize inverting amplifier, summing amplifier, noninverting amplifier, and difference amplifier.
- Know and be able to use the equations for voltage, current, power, and energy in inductors, capacitors, and understand basic concept of mutual inductance.
- Be able to determine the natural and step response of RL, RC and RLC circuits.
- Be able to transform a circuit with sinusoidal source into frequency domain and analyze circuits containing linear and ideal transformers using phasor methods.

Homework & Projects
|
• Assignments are chosen from your textbook and can be found below the title “Assessment Problems” in each chapter.
• Homework will be assigned each week and will be due the following week. For example; Homework-1 is assigned in week-1 and will be submitted in week-2 before the lecture in which Solution-1 is provided.
• All homework assignments must be submitted as hardcopies, and they should be turned in at the beginning of lecture on the due date.
• Late homework will not be accepted.
• Each assignment will be worth 100 points.
• You are only allowed to do the homework alone.
• You will have a quiz at the beginning of each problem solution session.
• During quizzes, you may use your own notes, but nothing else is allowed—i.e., no books, no collaboration, no laptops, no mobile phones etc.
• Your lowest quiz/homework score will be dropped.
