CSU

Prerequisite: Mathematics 115. This course is offered as a lecture section (Electronics 4A) and a laboratory section (Electronics 4B). Day Students: Must take Electronics 4B with 4A.
Lecture, 3 hours; laboratory, 3 hours.

The lecture provides detailed study of direct and alternating current theory and applications. Topics include, Ohms law, energy sources, magnetism, capacitance, inductance, and transient circuits. Complex circuits are solved using Kirchhoffs laws, and Thevenins and Nortons Theorems. The laboratory provides experience in applying electrical laws and test equipment to dc/ac circuits. Practices include component identification, breadboarding circuits, resistor and capacitor color codes and circuit measurements using the VOM and digital multimeter.
