Students should have a basic understanding of electrical engineering fundamentals, including Ohm’s law, Kirchhoff’s laws, and basic calculus. Familiarity with AC/DC circuits and introductory physics concepts such as energy, voltage, and current is recommended. Students should be prepared to perform mathematical analysis, circuit simulations, and problem-solving exercises related to electrical networks.
This course introduces the fundamental principles of RLC circuits and their role in electrical and electronic engineering. It covers series and parallel RLC circuit behaviour under steady-state AC and transient conditions using differential equations and phasor techniques. Students will learn to calculate resonance frequency, bandwidth, and quality factor (Q factor) and understand how component values affect circuit performance. The course also explores damping effects, impedance analysis, and the design of filters and oscillators used in communication and signal processing systems.
By the end of the course, students will analyse and model RLC circuits, determine impedance and phase relationships, and evaluate transient and steady-state responses. They will design basic filters and oscillators, troubleshoot real-world circuits, and apply simulation tools to improve circuit stability, performance, and reliability in engineering applications.
