Course Content
This course covers the fundamental concepts of electrical and electronic science. Topics include the definition and measurement of voltage, current, resistance, power, and energy; application of Ohm's and Kirchhoff's laws; analysis of series, parallel, and mixed circuits; use of basic electrical measuring instruments (multimeter, oscilloscope, etc.); study of rectifier, filter, and switching circuits; functions and applications of electronic components such as diodes, transistors, relays, and sensors; and the working principles of simple control circuits.
Objectives of the Course
The aim of this course is to enable students to understand the basic concepts, components, and working principles of electrical and electronic circuits. Students will define fundamental quantities such as voltage, current, and resistance, apply Ohm's Law, perform series and parallel circuit analyses, and use basic measuring instruments (e.g., multimeter) for circuit measurements. They will also gain the ability to interpret simple control circuits by understanding the functions of basic electronic components such as diodes, transistors, and relays.
