MFG 1337 - Circuit Theory


Credits: 3

The circuit is a fundamental building block for all electrical and electronic devices that make our life comfortable and efficient. There are several principles that determine the flow of electricity that any student of electricity or electronics must learn in order to understand the nature and abilities of electrical and electronic equipment. Circuit Theory I is an introduction to direct current (DC) circuits. Circuit Theory I will introduce the student to electrical/electronic components; the nature of electricity (voltage, current and resistance); Ohm’s Law of measurement; the concept of energy and power; types of circuits (series, parallel, and series-parallel); Thevenin’s and Norton’s Theorems of circuits simplification, and magnesium and electro magnetism.
