Resistive Network Analysis: Node Voltage and Mesh Current Methods; Principle of Superposition; Maximum Power Transfer; Nonlinear Circuit Elements. AC Network Analysis: Energy-Storage Circuit Elements; Time-Dependent Signal Sources; Phasors and Impedances; AC Circuits Analysis Methods.
AC Power: Power in AC Circuits; Complex Power; Transformers. Semiconductors and Diodes: Electrical Conduction in Semiconductors; The pn junction and the Semiconductor Diode; Diode Models; Practical Diode Circuits. Transistor Fundamentals: The Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT); BJT Large Signal Models. Operational Amplifiers: Amplifiers; The Operational Amplifier; Active Filters; Integrator and Differentiator Circuits; Physical Limitations of Op-Amps.

Calculation formula of final grade
For students with a classification in component B greater or equal to 9,0, the final classification will be the average of component A (30%) and component B (70%).
For students with a classification in component B smaller than 9,0, the final classification will be the classification of component B.
Examinations or Special Assignments
For special evaluation and clasification improvement:
- 1 oral practical examination replaces component A;
- 1 two-hour written examination paper replaces component B.
Special assessment (TE, DA, ...)
- 1 oral practical examination replaces component A;
- 1 two-hour written examination paper replaces component B.
Classification improvement
- 1 oral practical examination replaces component A;
- 1 two-hour written examination paper replaces component B.
