ELE120 — D.C. Circuits
This is a study of the basic principles of voltage, current, and resistance. Solid state devices and their graphical characteristics are studied. Among the topics covered are resistance, color code, Ohm's Law, series and parallel circuits, voltage dividers, semiconductor diodes and transistors. Network analysis is introduced using DC sources and resistive components. In the laboratory, the students will connect components into basic electrical circuit configurations and use DC multimeters to verify circuit operation.
