Welcome! |
Objective: This course is a continuation
of Engin 231 (Circuit Analysis I). You will be able to perform AC steady-state
analysis in the time- and frequency-domains. Mastery of concepts and tools like
frequency response, Bode diagrams, transformers, transfer functions, and
Laplace transforms will also be achieved.
Activities: Plenty
of worked out examples in the text are available for you to practice and
monitor your progress. A Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis
(PSPICE), using Schematic Capture, will be introduced, which comes with the
Study Guide included in the textbook. Specific homework problems and quiz
questions will be related to PSPICE.

available in the campus bookstore.
Assessment: You
can monitor your progress by doing practice and homework problems. The weekly
problem set is assigned on Tuesdays and due a week later in class. There will
be a five-to-ten-minute quiz every two weeks, an in-class exam every four
weeks, and an accumulative final. The grade distribution will be home-works
(15%), exams (45%), and final (40%). Unannounced “quizzes” will be
assigned for extra credits.
