ECEN-22000 Electric Circuits

This course introduces students to how electrical circuits function. Topics include DC and AC electrical current and voltage, electrical energy, and electrical power. Circuit components such as resistors, inductors, and capacitors are explained both in terms of their underlying physics and how they influence the behavior of electric circuits. Circuit analysis techniques such as Ohm's Law, Kirchhoff's voltage and current laws,Thevenin and Norton transformations, and the superposition theorem are explained and used to solve problems. Basic electrical measurement techniques are demonstrated and applied in a series of laboratory experiments.
