ENEE 206 Basic Circuit Theory. [4]
This course discusses the basic theory of electric circuits. Topics include Kirchhoff's Laws, nonlinear and time-varying elements of systems and circuits, solution of circuit differential equations, zero input, zero state and complete response, coupled elements, ideal transformers, controlled sources, and node and mesh analysis in the time domain. The course includes a laboratory in which the student is expected to design and test circuits using PSPICE and real components. Prerequisite: PHYS 122. Corequisite: MATH 225.
ENEE 244 Digital Logic Design. [3]
Topics include gates, flip-flops, registers and counters, Karnough map simplification of gate networks, switching algebra, synchronous sequential systems, PLAS, and elements of binary arithmetic units. Prerequisite: ENES 240.
ENEE 300 Principles of Electrical Engineering. [3]
Not applicable in the electrical engineering major program. Acceptable as prerequisite for some advanced ENEE courses. Analysis of linear systems, introduction to Laplace transforms, steady-state A-C transforms, introduction to the concepts of electromagnetic fields and electric machines, principles and circuit applications of semiconductors, electron tubes and integrated circuits. Prerequisite: MATH 251 and PHYS 224.
ENEE 301L Electrical Engineering Laboratory. [1]
Experiments on the transient and steady-state response of linear circuits,
electric machines, electron tubes and semi-conductor devices. Two hours of
laboratory per week. Prerequisite: ENEE 300.
ENEE 302
Principles of Electrical Engineering. [4]
Not applicable in the electrical engineering and computer engineering
major programs. Acceptable as prerequisite for some advanced ENEE
courses. The course introduces fundamental principles and analysis of
electrical engineering. Linear analog electrical circuits, Kirchoff's
laws, DC, transient, and sinusoidal responses, transformers,
frequency-selective circuits, introduction and application of Laplace
transform, electric machines, Boolean algebra, logic gates, basic
digital electronic circuits. It includes laboratory exercises on the
subjects covered by the lectures. Prerequisites: PHYS 122 and
MATH 2225.
