Revision as of 01:23, 13 January 2023

The notes below are not meant to be comprehensive but rather to capture the general topics of covered during lectures in EGR 224 for Spring 2023. These notes are in no way a replacement for actively attending class.

Lecture 1 - 1/11 - Course Introduction, Nomenclature

  • Main web page at http://classes.pratt.duke.edu/EGR224S23/
  • Circuit terms (Element, Circuit, Path, Branch and Essential Branch, Node and Essential Node, Loop and Mesh).
  • Accounting:
    • # of Elements * 2 = total number of voltages and currents that need to be found using brute force method
    • # of Essential Branches = number of possibly-different currents that can be measured
    • # of Meshes = number of independent currents in the circuit (or generally Elements - Nodes + 1 for planar and non-planar circuits)
    • # of Nodes - 1 = number of independent voltage drops in the circuit
