sources, diodes, transistors, and op-amps; understand the terminal relations and
models that are used to describe the operating characteristics of these components.
B. Understand and systematically apply basic circuit laws governing voltages and
currents (Kirchhoff's Laws).
C. Analyze linear AC/DC steady-state circuits.
D. Use basic circuit techniques (i.e., Nodal analysis, superposition, parallel and
series combinations, equivalent transformations, Thevenin and Norton
equivalents) to analyze and design linear circuits.
E. Understand circuit transients and calculate responses for 1st and 2nd order circuits.
F. Understand elementary concepts of electronic circuits such as operational
amplifiers and their circuit models.
G. Analyze and design multiple op-amp circuits.
H. Use basic test and measurement equipment necessary to evaluate the performance
of simple electric and electronic circuits
I. Understand basic limitations, inaccuracies, and tolerances of the test equipment,
components, and procedures
J. Design circuits with efficient reliability, and cheaply achieve the desired results
