PHY 214 - Introduction to Circuit Analysis
IAI Number Major: EGR931
3 Credit Hour(s)
3 Lecture Hour(s)
0 Lab Hours(s)
Prerequisite(s): MAT 202 with a grade of “C” or higher and the completion of PHY 206 or concurrent enrollment.
Co-requisite(s): Concurrent enrollment PHY 206
This course introduces students to fundamental principles of circuit theory as used in engineering and scientific applications. Topics include basic concepts of electrical current, voltage, power and energy; units; independent and dependent sources; resistance R; Ohm’s Law; Kirchhoff’s Laws; simple resistive circuits; delta-to-wye transformations; resistive circuit analysis methods (node-voltage, mesh-currents, source transformations, Thevenin and Norton equivalents, and superposition); operational amplifiers; capacitance C and inductance L; transient responses of RC, RL and RLC circuits; sinusoidal steady state RLC circuits (analysis in time domain and frequency domain, and power).
