EE305 Lect0 2407

This document provides an introduction to the course EE-305 Network Analysis. It makes three key points: 1. Circuit analysis concepts are fundamental to electrical and computer engineering, and practice is needed to become proficient. Students should take advantage of opportunities to practice circuit analysis. 2. Circuit theory provides the basic principles for understanding electric, electronic, and magnetic devices and systems. Examples of circuit applications in technologies like VCRs and power transformers are provided. 3. While computer simulation tools are available, students should first learn concepts manually to ensure understanding before using software, as software can provide answers without real comprehension. Practice is important for learning principles.

EE-305

Network Analysis
A Note to the Students
1. Circuit analysis is not only fundamental to the entire
breadth of electrical and computer engineering—the
concepts studied here extend far beyond those
boundaries.
2. Learning to analyze electric circuits is like learning to
play a musical instrument. Most people take music
lessons as a starting point. Then, they become
proficient through practice, practice, and more
practice.
3. Proficiency in circuit analysis can only be obtained
through practice. Take advantage of the many
opportunities throughout this subject to practice,
practice, and practice
A Note to the Students
A Note to the Students
Introduction
Technology is rapidly changing the way we do things; we
now have computers in our homes, electronic control
systems in our cars, cellular phones that can be used just
about anywhere, robots that assemble products on
production lines, and so on.
A first step to understanding these technologies is electric
circuit theory.

Circuit theory provides you with the knowledge of basic


principles that you need to understand the behavior of
electric and electronic devices, circuits, and systems.
Applications - VCR
Design of VCR is based on electrical, electronic,
and magnetic circuit principles. For example,
resistors, capacitors, transistors, and
integrated circuits are used to control
the voltages and currents that operate its
motors and amplify the audio
and video signals that are the heart of the
system.

A magnetic circuit (the read/write system) performs the actual tape reads
and writes. It creates, shapes, and controls the magnetic field that records
audio and video signals on the tape.

Another magnetic circuit, the power transformer, transforms the ac voltage


from the 120-volt wall outlet voltage to the lower voltages required by the
system.
Applications – Power Transformer Design

A Word of Caution
•With the widespread availability of inexpensive software tools,
you may wonder why you are asked to solve problems manually
throughout this Course.
•The reason is that, as a student, your job is to learn principles
and concepts.
•Getting correct answers using prepackaged software does not
necessarily mean that you understand the theory—it may mean
only that you know how to enter data. Software tools should
always be used wisely.
•Before you use PSpice, Electronics Workbench, or any other
application package, be sure that you understand the basics of
the subject that you are studying.
•This is why you should solve problems manually with your
calculator first.
