EG 331 - Linear Circuit Analysis

(3.00 cr.)

Basic techniques of lumped-parameter circuit analysis are presented. Signal waveforms, electrical element models, and Kirchoff's laws are exercised. Mesh equations, node equations, and techniques based on the properties of circuit linearity are used extensively. The utility of Norton and Thevenin equivalent circuits, proportionality, and superposition are presented. The transient and steady-state responses of second-order energy storage circuits are explored. The course concludes with sinusoidal steady-state analysis and the role of phasors in circuit analysis.
