Electric Circuit Theory 1Laajuus (5 cr)

Code: 5S00EV45

Credits

5 op

Objectives

The student can
- understand the basic concepts of electrical circuits and understand their origin
- use current-voltage equations of circuit components for analyzing electrical circuits and understand the principles of basic components
- systematically analyze electrical circuits

In addition to analyzing skills, the student has a strong understanding that any circuit can be systematically solved by the Kirchhoff Voltage Law, Kirchhoff Power Law, and component current-voltage equations, and that the primary goal of various circuit resolution methods is merely to reduce the workload required for analysis.

Content

Direct current circuits: options for connecting resistors, principles of circuit analysis, construction of different solution methods from Kirchhoff's laws.

Alternating current circuits: utilization of complex numbers in the description of alternating current quantities (pointer computation), impedance concept, repetition of computational methods using pointer computation.

Assessment criteria, satisfactory (1-2)

The student is able to analyze simple DC and AC circuits.

Assessment criteria, good (3-4)

The student understands the functional differences between DC and AC circuits. In addition, the student has such a strong routine for analyzing electrical circuits that the complexity of the task does not substantially complicate the task, but only increases the workload. The student has also developed a strong circuit reading skill, which is needed, for example, to simplify complex circuits. The calculation of AC power is smooth.

Assessment criteria, excellent (5)

The student knows the background of circuit analysis so well that he understands that different solution methods are just the application of the same rules in different ways. As a result, the student is able to solve any circuit by any method and is aware that the difference between the methods is ultimately only in the workload. As a result of a strong understanding, the analysis of AC circuits is not substantially more difficult than DC power circuits.
