Build the map of the field and the circuit, energy and signal ideas every later stage relies on.
The topics of this subject, the prerequisites they rely on from other subjects, and where they lead next. Select a topic to see its lessons.
Ratios, scientific notation, unit conversion and simple equations: the arithmetic every engineering estimate rests on.
Voltage, current, power and energy; Ohm's law, KCL, KVL and equivalent circuits.
Capacitors and inductors, first-order differential equations, RC and RL responses and time constants.
Period, frequency, duty cycle, average and RMS values; complex numbers, phasors and impedance.
Simplified models of diodes and MOSFETs, operating points, losses and ratings.
Scripts, plots and simulation models; linear equations, matrices, step sizes and numerical error.
Linear time-invariant systems, step and frequency response, Laplace transforms, poles, Bode plots and negative feedback.
Flux, induction, magnetic circuits and saturation; measurement range, sampling, reference points and error.
Lessons published by AIPE Academy. Outlines describe planned coverage, drafts are complete enough to study with care, and available lessons are ready to work through.
Labs, teaching files and related tools, data and references. Teaching files are drafts, and none is a validated hardware design.
