ECE 2004 Electric Circuit Analysis
ECE 2004: Electric Circuit Analysis, commonly referred to as circuits, is the lecture portion of the in-major introductory circuits class. It is a required course for computer engineering and electrical engineering students. It covers resistors, voltage and current sources, capacitors, inductors and op-amps. These components are studied from an AC and DC perspective, with the first third of the course mostly about DC, the middle third about transient and steady state responses of RC, L/R and RLC circuits, and the final third of the class analyzing circuits using phasors.
Required Software
PSpice is nominally required for this class, but since this is really the theory part, its use is minimal. The homework assignments that occasionally require simulations have been successfully completed by students using Qucs in the past. Just ask your professor about using Free Software. MATLAB use can be replaced with the likes of QtOctave.
