Course assistant :
The course objective is to introduce fundamental concepts of electric circuits. Besides, provide students with basic electric circuits analysis techniques. In addition, emphasize practical engineering-based applications
Course objectives :
Basic Concepts: Voltage, current, power, and energy. Independent and dependent voltage and current sources. DC Circuits Analysis: Ohms law, Kirchhoff’s current and voltage laws. Series and parallel DC circuits analysis, nodal analysis, and mesh analysis. Superposition, source transformation, and maximum power transfer theorems, Thevenin’s and Norton’s theorems. Capacitance and Inductance: series and parallel connections of capacitors and inductors. AC Circuits Analysis: Sinusoidal sources, rms value, phasor representation, complex impedances. Kirchhoff’s laws in the phasor domain, parallel and series AC circuits
