This course covers topics
in AC and DC linear circuit analysis including Kirchhoff's Laws, voltage and
current division, nodal and mesh analyses, superposition, equivalent
circuits and power, and the role of circuit components such as dependent and
independent sources, operational
amplifiers, resistors, capacitors, and inductors. Steady-state AC
circuit topics such as phasors, impedance, frequency response, filtering,
damping, resonance, and power are covered. The transient responses of
1st- and 2nd-order systems are examined. Magnetic circuits are also
introduced. Applications of diodes and transistors, as switches, are
discussed. Related experiments are integrated throughout the course.
