Eligibility
General entry requirements for bachelor's level (first cycle)Applicants enrolled in a programme at Chalmers where the course is included in the study programme are exempted from fulfilling the requirements above.
Specific entry requirements
The same as for the programme that owns the course.Applicants enrolled in a programme at Chalmers where the course is included in the study programme are exempted from fulfilling the requirements above.
Course specific prerequisites
Linear algebra, real analysis, complex mathematical analysis, mechanics 1Aim
The aim of the course is to provide the basic methodology in analysing analogue electrical and electronic circuits. This includes knowledge on the traditional passive circuit elements, sources, diodes, transistors and operational amplifiers. In addition, the course provides knowledge in how the electrical circuit operates as a system where concepts such as transfer function, frequency response and feedback are treated.Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)
- Analyze passive linear electrical DC and stationary AC circuits
- Calculate transient signals in electrical circuits
- Analyze active electrical circuits based on diodes, transistors and opamps
- Gain insight into the electrical circuit as a system and be able to analyze time- and frequency response
- Understand concepts of feedback and stability
- Understand the design of an oscillator and an active filter
- Use computer-based tool for analyzing electrical circuits

Examination including compulsory elements
Written exam and passed laborations. The optional "dugga" can give bonus credits for the written exam and the two extra exams to follow.The course examiner may assess individual students in other ways than what is stated above if there are special reasons for doing so, for example if a student has a decision from Chalmers on educational support due to disability.
