ELE 123 - AC Fundamentals Lab (1)

Prerequisite: ELE 103 or concurrent enrollment
spring

Lab: Two hours of lab per week.

A laboratory class designed to accompany ELE 103. Students will focus on Alternating Current, capacitive and inductance circuits, RLC steady state circuit analysis, resonance, and an introduction to filters. Students will build various AC Circuits and apply what they learned from the lecture into the lab. Students will measure voltages and currents using various test instruments such as function generator, digital multimeter, and oscilloscope. Students will learn to operate an oscilloscope to measure phase angle of an RL, RC and RLC circuit as well as measure peak, peak to peak and frequency.
