Introduction to AC Networks
ETE 4304 / 3 q.h.
June 25 - August 4
Boston (Hybrid) W 5:45 PM-8:45 PM
The basic circuit laws and frequency domain methods are used to solve sinusoidal steady-state circuits. RMS values of current and voltage, instantaneous and average power and complex power are explored. Complex frequency / phasor algebra are introduced to explain the concept of impedance & frequency response. Network reduction by Y-Delta & Delta-Y conversions is explained.
Prerequisite: ETE 4206 DC Network Analysis.
AC Network Analysis
ETE 4306 / 3 q.h.
August 6 - September 15
Boston (Hybrid) W 5:45 PM-8:45 PM
The transmittal of power in AC circuits is introduced. Real and reactive power and how they are generated are explored. The reduction of AC circuit losses and voltage drop are determined using the concept of power factor correction via capacitor utilization. Methods to control circuit voltage are developed using the transformer. The concept of three-phase power generation, utilization and benefits are explored. AC Circuit Lab experiments are performed.
Prerequisite: ETE 4304 Introduction to AC Networks.
Sequential Digital Systems
ETE 4328 / 3 q.h.
June 25 - August 4
Boston (Hybrid) Tu 5:45 PM-8:45 PM
Examines the physical devices used to realize digital circuits, as a complement to the previous treatment of idealized mathematical models. Introduces application designs using flip-flops and sequential logic circuits such as ripple counters, synchronous counters, ring counters and Johnson counters, shift registers, solid-state memory devices, and the 555 timer.
Prerequisite: ETE 4325 Applied Digital Systems.
Applied Sequential Digital Systems
ETE 4329 / 3 q.h.
August 6 - September 15
Boston (Hybrid) Tu 5:45 PM-8:45 PM
Introduces the concepts of rise-time, fall-time, set-up time, hold-time, delay-time, and the maximum frequency of a clock. Discusses the presently available logic families such as TTL, CMOS, and EC, and considers interconnection problems. Introduces memory elements and field-programmable logic elements. Presents interfacing devices such as analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters.
Prerequisite: ETE 4328 Sequential Digital Systems.
Applied Photonics for Engineers
ETE 4392 / 4 q.h.
June 25 - August 18
Boston (Hybrid) W 5:40 PM-9:40 PM
This course develops the theory and application of key photonic devices used in engineering disciplines (electrical, mechanical, civil, etc.). The course begins with an analysis of light interaction principles and develops a functional scheme to catalog photonic devices by their light (radiation) interaction. Theories and key applications of photonic devices are presented for: (1) measurements and sensing; (2) material processing involving material characterizations as well as material ablation behaviors; and (3) information processing including fiber optic transmission-related devices, storage, display, and other useful devices. Source characteristics and properties, such as for lasers, are also treated. Course work includes a student report on a key photonic application. No previous optics background is required. |
