Electrical Engineering
Fundamental laws of circuit analysis: Ohm’s law, Kirchoff’s voltage and current
laws and the law of conservation of energy; circuits containing independent
and dependent voltage and current sources; resistance, conductance, capacitance
and inductance analyzed using mesh and nodal analysis, superposition and source
transformations and Norton’s and Thevenin’s theorems; steady state analysis of
DC and AC circuits; complete solution for transient analysis for circuits with one
and two storage elements. Prerequisite(s): MATH 1920; CHEM 1110 and CSIT

Average, complex, real and imaginary power; effective value of voltage and
current; three-phase circuits; delta and wye connections, power measurement
using two wattmeters; complex frequency; sinusoidal forcing functions and
natural response; resonance: general case, special cases in series and parallel
circuits; scaling: magnitude and frequency; mutual inductance transformers as
circuit elements; linear and ideal transformers as circuit elements; linear and
ideal transformers; admittance, impedance and hybrid parameters; trigonometric
and complex Fourier series. Course includes 3 hours of lecture and 3 hours of
laboratory applications each week. Prerequisite(s): ECE 2010 Corequisite(s):
