    Description
    This course provides an introduction to the analysis of electrical circuits. The use of analytical techniques based on the application of circuit laws and network theorems is the main focus of the course. The analysis of DC and AC circuits containing resistors, capacitors, inductors, dependent sources, operational amplifiers, and/or switches shall be employed. Natural and forced responses of first and second order RLC circuits, the use of phasors, AC power calculations, power transfer, and energy concepts are other general topics that are covered in this course.
