Circuits and Electronics

Circuits

• Electric circuit components: lumped parameter models.
• Nodal and mesh analysis of linear, passive circuits; equivalent networks.
• Steady state analysis of lumped parameter, time-invariant circuits: differential equation formulation, sinusoidal inputs, frequency response, impulse response, and transfer functions.
• Laplace transform analysis and circuit transient response.
• Two-port circuit models and analysis.

Electronics

• Semiconductor devices; diodes and thyristors.
• Bipolar and field effect transistors as linear devices and switches.
• Bias circuits, basic amplifiers, small-signal equivalent circuits, transfer functions, and frequency response.
• Operational amplifiers and comparators.
• Digital integrated circuits and logic families: TTL, TTL-LS, and CMOS.
