ENGR 2000 Circuit Analysis with Lab
An introduction to the analysis, construction and measurement of electrical circuits. Use of analytical and laboratory techniques based on the application of circuit laws and network theorems including Ohm?s and Kirkoff?s laws and Thevenin?s and Norton?s theorems. Analysis of Direct Current (DC) and Alternating Circuit (AC) circuits containing resistors, capacitors, inductors, dependent sources, operational amplifiers and/or switches using nodal and mesh analysis Natural and forced responses of first and second order Resistance/Inductance/Capacitance (RLC) circuits, the use of phasors, AC power calculations, power transfer and energy concepts. Basic use of electrical test and measurement instruments including multimeters, oscilloscopes, power supplies, and function generators. Interpretation of measured and simulated data based on principles of circuit analysis. Practical considerations such as component value tolerance and non-ideal aspects of laboratory instruments. Construction and measurement of basic operational amplifier circuits. Use of circuit simulation software. C-ID: ENGR 260 & 260L. Transfer Credit: CSU; UC.
