Course Goals: Introduce the fundamental tools of linear circuit analysis which is useful to all
engineers. Develop the fundamentals of circuits, including wires, resistors, capacitors, inductors, voltage
and current sources, and operational amplifiers. Prepare students for more advanced courses in electronic
applications and circuit analysis.
Hybrid Course: This course will be offered in a hybrid format with both in classroom sessions and
online events. We will meet in the classroom on Tuesdays and Thursday. The online material includes
pre-recorded videos, online quizzes, outside class reading assignments and other online sessions. All
course materials will be available on the ECS Hive: https://ecshive.ecs.csus.edu/portal. You will be able
to join the “EEE 17” site on the ECS Hive during the first week of the semester.
Homework: Homework assignments will be completed online using the ECS Hive Test and Quizzes
module. Each chapter will have a homework assignment. Problems shall either be from the textbook or
created by the instructor. Most assignments are released Monday mornings at 6 am. Most homework
assignments are due on Monday mornings at 5:00 am. All homework material is testable whether covered
in class or only in the homework assignment.
Quizzes: There will be individual quizzes during the semester. The individual quizzes will be completed
online each Thursday using the ECS Hive Test and Quizzes module.
Exams: There will be two midterm exams and a final exam during the semester. The exams are a timed
online test completed online using the ECS Hive Test and Quizzes module as scheduled in the syllabus.
The student will use the online access of their choice and should make appropriate arrangements to take
the exam online during the scheduled day/time. Prior written permission is required for all make-up
exams and then only with compelling reasons in accordance with and as outlined by University policy.
Grading Policy: The course will be graded in accordance with University guidelines using the “+” and
“-” method as called for by the University. Grades may be curved at the instructor’s discretion. The class
average is usually in the C+ range. Typical (meaning somewhere around this region) grades ranges are:
“A” 94.5 and above “A-” 89.5 to 94.49
“B+” 87.5 to 89.49 “B” 83.5 to 87.49
“B-” 79.5 to 83.49
“C+” 77.5 to 79.49 “C” 73.5 to 77.49
“C-” 69.5 to 73.49
“D+” 67.5 to 69.49 “D” 63.5 to 67.49
“D-” 59.5 to 63.49
F Below 59.5
We tell ABET that after this course the student will be able to:
1. Properly use Laplace transform methods including correctly stating the transformed circuit’s
initial conditions.
2. Solve circuit equations to determine the appropriate s domain transfer function.
3. Solve the partial fraction expansion equations and then properly use the Laplace transform tables
to write the corresponding time domain solutions.
4. Solve the Fourier Series integrals to determine the Fourier coefficients.
5. Demonstrate knowledge of the nature of periodicity and the resulting harmonic behavior of
circuits.
6. Calculate currents, voltages and equivalent impedances in the frequency domain as introduced in
Engr 17.
7. Find the transfer function relationships of a defined output versus a defined input.
8. Successfully determine the steady-state response of a circuit by the analysis of the transfer
function.
9. Display a thorough knowledge of all methods of analysis both in the time domain and frequency
domain. Uses the tool/method most appropriate to the desired analysis.

2. Your ECS email will be the contact method for the course. So use an email that you monitor
frequently.
3. Log onto ECS Hive: https://moodle2.ecs.csus.edu/login/index.php
4. Go to “Electrical Engineering” courses.

ECS Moodle Tips and Hints
1. The homeworks are available three weeks prior to the due date. You can “Submit” the homework
as many times as you wish. I suggest you start the homework early and bring questions into class.
You will NOT be able to see any assignment you did not complete (by submitting the assignment).
2. All quizzes are ONE submission only. The computer will automatically submit your quiz at the
end of the 50 minutes allowed for the quiz.
3. All exams are ONE submission only. The computer will automatically submit your quiz at the
end of the 75 minutes allowed for the exam. You must send me your original work for my review
if you feel a question was scored incorrectly or incompletely.
4. Periodically review your grade in the Moodle Gradebook. Bring to my attention any error or
anomaly as soon as possible.
