CS Core:

KA Core:

Non-core:

Core Learning Outcomes:

1. State the definitions and representations of basic electrical quantities (charge, current, voltage, energy, power), as well as the
   relationships among them.
2. Define and represent basic circuit elements (resistors, inductors, capacitors).
3. Solve problems using Ohm’s law, including its power representations.
4. Analyze basic electrical circuits using Ohm’s law.
5. Explain the difference between resistance and reactance, the meaning of phase, and the effect of frequency on capacitance and
   inductance.

Elective Learning Outcomes:

1. Interpret the role of capacitors and inductors as basic storage elements.
2. Contrast related electrical quantities and concepts including frequency response, sinusoids, convolution, diodes and transistors, and
   other storage elements.
3. Provide examples of using circuit simulators to model and analyze simple circuits.
