This course covers the basic principles of linear circuits. Kirchhoff’s laws, circuit equations, RL, RC, and RLC circuits, three-phase circuits, power analysis and power factor, and magnetically coupled circuits. Three lecture hours per week, three laboratory hours every other week.

Upon satisfactory completion of the course, the student will be able to:

• Analyse resistive circuits using basic laws (node and loop analysis, Thevenin, Norton's, superposition)
• Determine the transient response of RC, RL, and RLC circuits
• Analyse AC circuits in steady state using the phasor method
• Use basic tools such as MATLAB and SPICE for circuit analysis
• Measure basic electrical signals using electronic measurement equipment in a lab setting.

• Lectures: Tuesdays and Thursdays 11:30am-1:00pm CLH M
• Labs are in every alternative week for each group
• Lab-01 and Lab-03: Wednesday 1:30 - 4:30pm WSC 108
• Lab-02 and Lab-04: Friday 4:30 - 7:30pm WSC 108
