Introduction to Electric Circuit Theory

The Introduction to Electric Circuit Theory course is a friendly introduction to circuit theory and analysis. In this course, you will learn some techniques for determining the behavior of simple electrical circuits. These techniques include:

• Kirchhoff’s Laws (current and voltage law)

• Mesh Analysis

• Superposition Theorem

• Thevenin’s Theorem

• Circuit Simulation with Proteus

You will be introduced to circuit concepts and terminology such as:

• Node

• Loop

• Mesh

• Open Circuit

• Short Circuit

You will analyze circuits that consist of voltage sources and resistors. This course is designed such that the theory behind the listed circuit analysis techniques is treated first, then numerical problems using these techniques are covered. In order for students to have a full understanding of the math behind circuits, they need to solve a variety of problems. This course does justice to that department by providing several practice problems (assignments) with solutions in order for students to evaluate their understanding.

Regardless of the aspect of electrical engineering a student might want to specialize in, it is important to have a good knowledge of circuits, their behavior, and how to analyze them. The simplest way to introduce beginners to electrical circuits is to treat the analysis of circuits with simple components.

After completing this course, I can guarantee that students will be able to apply different circuit analysis techniques and theorems to analyze electrical circuits. They will also be able to simulate these circuits using Proteus. These skills will prepare them for more advanced courses requiring the application of circuit theory such as:

• Electronics

• Embedded Systems

• Control Systems

• Electrical Machines

• Power Systems etc.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do I have access to the course materials?

You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.

Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don’t have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That’s up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!
