ELEC 112 - AC Electronics

3 Credit (2 lecture, 3 lab) 5 Contact Hours [Prerequisite: ELEC 111 ] [Pre- or co-requisite: INDS 126 or MATH 120 ]

This is a continuation of the study of basic electronics with emphasis on alternating current. The course will include AC measurements with an oscilloscope, capacitance, inductance, as well as capacitive and inductive reactance. Calculations using complex numbers in order to calculate phase angle and true power will be introduced. Laboratory experiments include: measuring AC voltages, use of the oscilloscope, RC, RL, and RCL circuits, and transformer operations.
OFFERED: fall and spring semesters
