Course Description: |
Steady-state
and dynamic behavior of linear, lumped-parameter electrical systems. Kirchoff’s
laws. RLC circuits. Node and mesh analysis. Operational
amplifiers. Dependent sources. Response of first-and second-order systems to
impulse and step inputs. Laplace transforms. Design applications in
engineering. |
|
Textbook: |
“Analysis and Design of Linear Circuits”, 3rd
edition by Thomas and Rosa. Available at the UCSD Bookstore. Student Solutions Manual by the same
authors (shows how to be solve many problems on computers by using MATLAB,
Mathcad and Excel) is optional. |
|
Material Covered: |
We will work through Chapters 1-4 in order. Chapter 6 will be covered briefly and will
be integrated with Chapter 4. We will work through Chapter 9-10 and use the
techniques learned in these chapters to solve the kind of circuits presented
in Chapter 7. We will do a little
work in Chapter 11 and 12 to learn how to design active filters covered in
Chapter 14. |
|
Prerequisites: |
A
grade of C- or better in Math 20D or 21D, and Physics 2B, admission to the
Department of MAE (formerly AMES), Structures, or Bioengineering. |
