Electric circuits 2
Overall Course Objectives
Understanding and application of analog signals, components and their composition in alternating current circuits as well as their usage in applications
See course description in Danish
Learning Objectives
- Understanding of different notations and parameters of alternating currents, voltage and power
- Apply basic Fourier series
- Explain and apply decibel and bode plot
- Explain basic physical principles behind passive components (resistors, inductors and capacitors)
- Determine properties of passive circuits, such as impedances and power
- Apply basic LaPlace transformations and determine and analyse transfer functions
- Analyse active alternating current circuitries
- Link basic theoretical knowledge to practical applications
- Demonstrate knowledge about technical terms also in English
- Compare different simulation and measurement tools
- Design solutions for realistic engineering problems under realistic working conditions for practicing engineers
- Co-creation of all exercises and self-reflection on own learning and wellbeing in an engineering environment
Course Content
Electric signals in alternating current circuitries in time and frequency domain, passive components in alternating current contexts, analog electrical circuits, transfer functions, and their applications (e.g. passive and active filters, amplifiers, motor drives, oscillator, power supplies)
Possible start times
- 6 – 20 (Tues 13-17)
Recommended prerequisites
31001/34600, – knowledge of trigonometric functions,
– complex numbers, and
– ohm’s law and Kirchhoff’s rules applied to direct current circuits
Teaching Method
Offered teaching material through videos and quizzes, chat-based communication, artificial intelligens, peer-review, problem solving and lab work, exercises.
The teaching is based on flipped classroom.
Learning is encouraged as co-creation with group and class members.
Faculty
Remarks
The course is a second semester constituent of the bachelor programme Electro Technology.
E-learning: The theory part (approximately the first half part of the course) can be taken “self-paced” to a high extend (based on videos, quizzes and chat-based help).
The setup of the course highly reflects working conditions for a practicing engineer.
