Course Description: In-depth study of electric circuits and networks with an emphasis on practical applications. It is a continuation of ECE 205 on circuit analysis. The course combines lectures, laboratory sessions, and design projects to allow students to gain a comprehensive experience on the theories and applicatoins of electric circuits. Students will have opportunities to become proficient with industrial application tools, such as, MultiSim and Matlab. networks.

Prerequisite: PHY 182/184, ECE 205, and MTH 245

Objectives: Upon finishing the course, students are expected to accomplish the following objectives:

• Understand power factor correction;
• Understand how power is delivered from power plants to consumers;
• Know how DC and AC motors/generators work;
• Be able to use Laplace transform for circuit analysis;
• Be ablet o design filters using R, L, C, and op amp.

Topics:

• AC power analysis;
• Poly-phase circuits;
• Magnetically coupled circuits;
• Electric machines;
• Frequency response and filters;
• Laplace transform and its applications to circuit analysis
• Two-port networks.

Labs: There will be approximately 7 lab sessions during the semester.
