ENGR 210 Circuit Analysis I (3)

The fundamentals of AC/DC currents and voltages and of circuit analysis are first covered, such as voltage, current, sources and Ohm’s law followed by general and powerful procedures (nodal and mesh analyses) used in analyzing electric circuits. These methods are first applied to resistive circuits and later to circuits with more complex elements such as capacitors and inductors using homogenous and nonhomogeneous differential equations. Circuits with DC sources as well as those with sinusoidal sources are analyzed using Thevenin’s and Norton’s theorems. The subjects of steady-state power and three-phase balanced systems are also covered.
