Course Objectives By the end of this course you should be able to: Set up the nodal and mesh matrix equations for DC and steady-state AC circuits and solve the matrix equations using MATLAB. Find the voltages and currents in basic DC and steady-state AC circuits using Thevenin’s theorem and superposition. Describe and analyze the operation of an ideal op-amp circuit. Identify basic gates (NOT, AND, OR, NAND, NOR, XOR, XNOR) and list the truth tables for each gate.

Course Objectives (cont Course Objectives (cont.) By the end of this course you should be able to: Find the reduced form of any logic function with 3 or 4 inputs by using Karnaugh maps. Simulate basic combinational and sequential digital circuits using Verilog and synthesize these circuits in a CPLD. Describe the meaning of instantaneous power, average power, and effective or RMS power in electric circuits. Describe the operation of a linear transformer and a basic DC motor.
