About this home page
This is the home page of the course EE E1201, Introduction to Electrical
Engineering, as taught at Columbia University in the Spring of 2003 General
course information, special announcements, homeworks, and solutions can
be found here. Students are expected to periodically check the contents
of this site to obtain up-to-date information about the course. All information
will be made available in class as well.
General course description
This course introduces basic concepts of electrical engineering and discusses
their application in real systems. The course introduces electrical variables,
circuit laws, nonlinear and linear elements, ideal and real sources, transducers,
operational amplifiers in simple circuits, external behavior of diodes
and transistors, first order RC and RL circuits. It also addresses the
digital representation of a signal, digital logic gates, and flip flops.
A laboratory is an integral part of the course. Among the various interesting
circuits that students will build in the lab are audio amplifiers and AM
radios. The course's only prerequisite is calculus and basic high school
physics.
