Course Description

Students continue their study of AC circuit analysis in this course. It emphasizes complex networks. Topics include an analysis of complex networks, networks with multiple sources, AC network theorems, resonance, transformers, three-phase systems, filters and bode plots, non-sinusoidal waveforms, and pulse response of RLC circuits. Laboratory work parallels class work.
