EETA 1010 - DC Circuit Analysis


Credits: 4

The fundamentals of direct current circuit analysis are covered extensively. Topics include resistance, Ohm’s law, power law, energy, series circuits, parallel circuits, series-parallel circuits, Kirchhoff’s Laws, Thevenin’s theorem, Norton’s theorem, superposition theorem, maximum power transfer theorem, nodal analysis, capacitance, inductance, transient response of RC and RL circuits, and ethics in engineering. Considerable circuit analysis problem solving is required. Hands-on weekly laboratory experiments reinforce the theoretical topics covered in the lecture and provide training to enable the student to build, test, and troubleshoot dc circuits with appropriate equipment such as ohmmeters, ammeters, voltmeters, and wattmeters safely and confidently.
