This subject includes: Introduction to electrical signals, circuit elements, dc circuit
theory, and transient response: Electrical concepts, Electrical units and calculations
used to apply them; Linearity; Energy transformations in electric circuits containing
resistors, capacitors and inductors; Theory and applications of ideal operational
amplifiers. This subject will depend on mathematical skills developed in Mathematics
B and/or MA1000, including algebra and some calculus. The goal of this subject is
to develop competency in a core set of electric circuit concepts and analytical techniques
that can be applied to a wide range of problems and which will be useful to all engineering
disciplines as well as forming the foundation for further study in Electrical and
Electronic Engineering. This subject requires substantial practice at the techniques
being studied rather than a rote memorisation process. Consequently, there is a focus
on, and expectation of, students diligently completing a substantial number of analytical
exercises each week in order to develop a robust understanding of the techniques.
Learning Outcomes
- a functional understanding of the relationships between voltage and current in linear
electrical components;
- the capacity to discuss and apply electrical principles and analysis techniques in
typical applications;
- accurate and efficient analysis of simple circuits operating under transitional and
steady-state dc conditions;
- design skills leading to the realisation of simple curcuits to satisfy basic engineering
specifications;
- clear and precise communication of problem, strategy and solution; professional standards
in submission of all assessable material.
