ELEC270: Linear Circuits and Devices

This unit develops the key skills of modelling passive and active electric circuit elements, and analysing circuits including these models. For passive circuits, topics covered are: ideal electrical components; energy dissipation and energy storage; Kirchhoff's laws; transient versus steady-state response; first-order and second-order circuits; and simple filters. For active circuits, the unit concentrates on analysis of ideal operational amplifiers.
