Your Introduction
Team work
Ability and willingness to learn
Enthusiastic (Be Positive)
Respect
Grades
Then you are GREAT

Objective of Circuit Analysis
Course
Obtain a thorough understanding of the
analysis of electric circuits and an
introductory to their design
At the end of course, you should be able to
model (mathematical) and analyze
(simulate) useful circuits from daily life
application (stereo amplifier, understand of
car electrical circuitry, voltage regulators,
controllers, communication circuitry)
First step towards Analog Design Engineer
For others: to control your respective systems10
Pre-Requisite
Calculus
Physics
Simple and common sense
11
Some important guidelines
Learning by doing: Solve as many as possible
the problems given in the homework
Problem solving Strategies: Develop
strategies to solve the problems both in class, at
home and in exams. Make notes with colored
pencils
Computer Aided Design Labs: PSPICE is Key.
If you dont know this then forget about modern
circuit analysis
12
Some Rules of the class
Rule 1, Sharing: Whatever we speak in class,
we shall share it with everyone here (except
exams)
Rule 2, Cell phones: Cell phones must be off,
otherwise rule 1 will apply
Rule 3, Raise hands for question
Rule 4, Cheating is killer, zero tolerance.
Rather help each other
Rule 5, for class work and Quiz, keep always
writing material and calculator

Why Circuit Analysis
First Step in Analog Design
Electrical Technology: Power and
Information
Effects almost all engineering disciplines
Circuit analysis provides the following
information
Cause and effect
Amplification and attenuation
Feedback and control
Stability and oscillation
14
Why Circuit Analysis
DEVELOP TOOLS FOR THE ANALYSIS AND DESIGN OF
BASIC LINEAR ELECTRIC CIRCUITS

Its a sensor to measure force and convert it in to
electrical signal

Temperature Sensor
Senses the temperature of the environment
Makes use of the change of resistivity in a
metal wire with temperature.
As electrons move through a metal, they are
impeded by the thermal vibrations of the
atoms in the crystal lattice. The higher the
temperature the greater the impedance and
the higher the resistivity.
Accuracy upto 0.001 C.
Usually platinum wire is used, since it is a
noble metal which is un-reactive over a wide
range of temperatures. But copper, nickel and
rhodium alloy may also be used in various
temperature ranges.
Usually a coil of the pure wire is wound onto
an alumina former or placed in the bores of an
alumina tube, and this assembly is mounted
in a steel tube.

Circuit Design Methodology
MATHEMATICAL ANALYSIS
DEVELOP A SET OF MATHEMATICAL
EQUATIONS THAT REPRESENT THE CIRCUIT
- A MATEMATICAL MODEL LEARN HOW TO SOLVE THE MODEL TO
DETERMINE HOW THE CIRCUIT WILL BEHAVE
IN A GIVEN SITUATION
THIS COURSE TEACHES THE BASIC
TECHNIQUES
TO DEVELOP MATHEMATICAL MODELS FOR
ELECTRIC CIRCUITS
THE MODELS THAT WILL BE DEVELOPED HAVE
NICE MATHEMATICAL PROPERTIES.
IN PARTICULAR THEY WILL BE LINEAR WHICH
MEANS THAT THEY SATISFY THE PRINCIPLE OF
SUPERPOSITION
Model
y = Tu
Principle of Superposition
T ( 1 u1 + 2 u2 ) = 1T ( u1 ) + 2T ( u2 )
THE MATHEMATICS CLASSES - LINEAR ALGEBRA,
DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS- PROVIDE THE TOOLS
TO SOLVE THE MATHEMATICAL MODELS
FOR THE FIRST PART WE WILL BE EXPECTED
TO SOLVE SYSTEMS OF ALGEBRAIC EQUATIONS

4V1 + 16V2 + V3 = 0
2V1 4V2 + 6V3 = 20

ELECTRIC CIRCUIT IS AN INTERCONNECTION OF ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
The concept of node is extremely
important. Node where the
terminals of two or more electrical
components are connected.
We must learn to identify a node
in any shape or form
