OHM'S LAW IS EVERYWHERE!: DC ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT ANALYSIS
It is always confusing to deal with electrical circuits for electrical engineering students. Questions like, "How can I analyze this circuit?", "Where should I start to analyze?" are the most typical and motivation breaker questions for them. After completing this course, these questions will no longer bother you and you will know what to do and where to start because,
Ohm's Law is everywhere! From the simplest circuit to a complex circuitboard. Learning that Kirchoff's Current Law (KCL), Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL), Node Voltage Analysis and Mesh Analysis are just the reflection of the complex electronic circuit full of Ohm's Law relations, you will find it extremely easy to solve any DC circuit. Course also includes, Superposition, Norton and Thevenin Equivalent methods which summaries the whole linear circuit theory.
No matter what is included in a linear circuit either DC or AC (Alternating Current system which you will learn later on), things you learned in this course are always the ultimate ways to solve and design any electrical system!
Another important question that appears kind of a confusion for electrical engineering students is that "Will I witness any of these in real life?". This question simply removes all of the motivation regarding to the student's perception towards electrical circuits. The answer to this question is Yes! Every circuit is based on these simple concepts that depend on Ohm's Law which is one of the most fundamental laws of the nature.
During the lectures, you will have practice exercises that you can try to solve and check the answers by watching the experimental result videos showing the real life examples of the circuits that you just analyzed in those practice exercises! So it is possible to see the real life results of what you analyzed and calculated in this course.
Also, a list of electrical components is provided for you to buy and experiment some circuits with them at the end of the course.
If you want more theoretical work and more exercises, there are resources at the end of the course that you can download as a soft copy and solve all of the comprehensive practice questions to enhance your analyzing skills!
