1 E E 1205 Circuit Analysis Lecture 1 - Introduction to Electrical Engineering

2 Overview of Electrical Engineering Electrical engineers design systems with two main objectives: to… –Gather, store, process, transport or present information –Distribute, and convert energy between different forms Electrical systems can be divided into seven major classifications.

3 7 Linked Classifications of Electrical Systems Communications Systems Computer Systems Control Systems Electromagnetics Electronics Power Systems Signal Processing Systems

4 Communications Systems Telephony –Analog and Digital –Switched Channels Radio –Broadcast AM, FM, & SW –Two-Way Television

5 Computer Systems Programmable Microcircuits High-speed switching of logic circuits Used for –Computation –Control

6 Control Systems Automated Adaptable Faster Operation than Manual More Reliable than Manual Modern high-performance aircraft rely on automated control systems

7 Electromagnetics Antennas for Sending & Receiving Information –Cell Phones –Satellite Dishes Magnetrons for generation of Microwave Energy Induction Heating for Industrial processes

8 Electronics Material Properties Devices Circuits Used for Detecting, Amplifying and Switching Electrical Signals

9 Power Systems Large networks connected by low frequency a-c transmission lines Small networks in aircraft and spacecraft Electromechanical Energy Conversion Power Electronics –High frequency switching converters –High efficiency, high power density

10 Signal Processing Systems Transform and manipulate signals and the information they contain Image processing –Data from weather satellites –MRI scans of the human body Noise reduction Encryption

11 Circuit Theory Mathematical modeling of physical phenomena Circuit theory is a special case of electromagnetic field theory –General EM theory is more complex than circuit theory –General EM theory requires more complex mathematics

12 Three Basic Assumptions of Circuit Theory Electric effects happen instantaneously throughout a system Net Charge on every component in the system is zero No magnetic coupling between components

14 Problem Solving Identify what is given and what is to be found. Sketch a circuit diagram or other visual model Think of several solution methods and a way of choosing between them Calculate a solution

15 Problem Solving (continued) Use your creativity –If your efforts are not converging to a solution, you may want to rethink your assumptions. Test your solution –Is your answer reasonable? –Does your answer validate your assumptions?

19 Circuit Analysis: An Overview A circuit model is used to connect our visualization to our analysis of a physical system The elements of our circuit model are ideal circuit components. The behavior of output parameters is governed by physical/mathematical laws for the elements of the circuit model.

20 Voltage and Current Voltage is the energy per unit of charge. Current is the rate of flow of charge.

21 Voltage and Current (continued) The relationship between voltage and current in a circuit element defines that circuit element. Both voltage and current have associated polarities. These polarities determine the direction of power flow.

22 Ideal Basic Circuit Element Three attributes of an ideal circuit element: –There are only two terminals –Described mathematically in terms of current and/or voltage –Cannot be subdivided into smaller components

23 Voltage Polarity Definitions Positive v –voltage drop from 1 to 2 or –voltage rise from 2 to 1 Negative v –voltage drop from 2 to 1 or –voltage rise from 1 to 2

24 Current Polarity Definitions Positive i –Positive charge flowing from 1 to 2 –Negative charge flowing from 2 to 1 Negative i –Positive charge flowing from 2 to 1 –negative charge flowing from 1 to 2

25 Passive Sign Convention Whenever the reference direction for the current in an element is in the direction of the reference voltage drop, use a positive sign in any expression that relates voltage to current. Otherwise, use a negative sign.

26 Power and Energy Power associated with a circuit element is consumed by that circuit element when the value of power is positive. Conversely, power is generated, or produced by the element if the value consumed is negative.

27 Expression of Power
