The first part of the course deals with Ohm’s law for electrical conductors, Kirchhoff’s laws for current and voltage in circuits, and basic measurement techniques for direct current circuits. Time dependent processes in direct current circuits are studied, and methods for the analysis of direct current and alternating current circuits are introduced. Further, alternating current and sinusoidal alternating current are treated. The function of various components in electrical circuits, such as resistors, capacitors, inductors and certain semiconductor elements, are covered. Methods of sinusoidal alternating current in electrical circuits are given in-depth coverage. Labs are an important feature of the course, and computer simulation is used to supplement physical labs.
Mandatory online meetings will be held according to the schedule.
Surf on the Internet, read and send emails, use a word-processing programme (e.g. Word). Connect a camera and headphones to the computer and install a programme using instructions.
Access to a computer (Not a mini pc, tablet or similar) that is not older than three years (or equivalent) and broadband connection, at least 1 Mbit/s (not mobile broadband, because mobile broadband can vary considerably in speed).
Higher rate of web-based communication where our learning platform (Learn/Canvas) is a natural element of the course. Web-based meetings with sound and image where simple presentations can be held. Lectures can be broadcast live or can alternatively be made available afterwards online.
Literature lists are published at the latest one month ahead of the course start date.
