Course Overview

DC resistive networks, KCL/KVL, mesh/nodal analysis, network theorems, and first/second-order transient responses. Curriculum Structure & Core Modules: • 1. Circuit Variables and Elements: Active, Passive, Independent, and Dependent Sources • 2. Ohm's Law, Kirchhoff's Current...

What You'll Learn

  • Formulate and solve system equations for multi-loop circuits using nodal and mesh analysis.
  • Apply superposition, Thevenin's, and Norton's theorems to simplify linear active networks.
  • Determine maximum power transfer conditions across variable resistive and reactive loads.
  • Derive differential equations and transient responses for first-order RL and RC circuits.
  • Analyze natural and step responses of series and parallel second-order RLC circuits (overdamped, critically damped, underdamped).

Requirements

  • Completion of CPE 104 and CPE 102.
