Objectives
In this course, learners will learn various techniques (“tools”) to analyze the operation of real circuits. The major concern is the analysis of circuits, i.e. the study of the behavior of the circuit, not the creation of circuits, i.e., the engineering design of the circuit.
Topics include:
- Circuit Theorems
- Energy Storage Elements and Transient Responses
- Laplace Transforms in Circuit Analysis
- Network Functions and Two-Port Networks
- Alternating Current Circuits
- Three-phase AC Circuits
At the end of the course, learners will be able to:
- Analyse AC and DC linear circuits.
- Set up independent equations of linear circuits and solve them using the techniques and skills acquired in this course.
- Interpret and perform the analytical techniques learnt in this course correctly that can serve as a good foundation for the study of linear control systems, power networks, electronics, and communication systems in later years.
Assessment
- Quiz
- Assignment
- Lab sessions
- Final Examination
