ELEC 225, Fall 2012
Prof. Rich Kozick

Homework 6


Date Assigned: Wednesday, September 26, 2012
Date Due: Wednesday, October 3, 2012

  1. Reading: In the Ulaby/Maharbiz text, please continue to study Chapter 3, Sections 3-5 and 3.6. For classes on October 3 and 10, please begin reading Chapter 4, Sections 4-1 through 4-7, and also review your materials on op amps from ELEC 120.

  2. Labs: We will have Lab 3 on Sept. 27 and Oct. 2.

  3. Exam 1 will be on Friday, Sept. 28 at 9:00 AM in BRKI 066. The exam will include the material covered in class, homework assignments 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and Lab 2 (but Lab 1 with PSpice and op amps is excluded). For the Thevenin equivalent circuit, Methods 1 and 2 will be included (but not Method 3).

    The exam will be closed-book and closed-notes, and you will need your calculator. Formulas for Y-Delta equivalent circuits will be provided.

  4. Please solve the following problems in Chapter 3 of the textbook and the supplemental problem, and submit solutions in class on Wednesday, Oct. 3.
    Problems 3.58 and 3.59: "Method 1" or "Method 3" must be used to find the Thevenin equivalent circuit due to the dependent source. You can solve using the method of your choice (you are not required to do both this time), but you may want to use both methods for practice.

    Please solve the supplemental problem linked here.

    Please clearly show all of the steps used in your analysis. Include circuits that are labeled with the voltages and currents used in your solution. If you get a result using your calculator, clearly show the equations that were solved on your calculator.

Thank you.
