ELTC 102: DC Electronics
Prerequisite: Concurrent enrollment in MATH 109 or TMAT 103 is suggested. DC Electronics deals with the descriptive and analytical relationship between voltage, current, resistance, power, and energy in series, parallel and series/parallel DC circuits. Ohm’s law, Kirchhoff’s laws, and network theorems will be applied to DC circuits. Laboratory experiences complement the theories studied and allow student to use test instrument and measuring techniques. 3 HRS
