Circuits and Electronics

This is a course description for Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s (MIT) course 6.002, Circuits and Electronics.  It is designed to serve as the first course in an undergraduate electrical engineering or electrical engineering and computer science curriculum. The course introduces the fundamentals of the lumped circuit abstraction. Topics covered include: resistive elements and networks; independent and dependent sources; switches and MOS transistors; digital abstraction; amplifiers; energy storage elements; dynamics of first- and second-order networks; design in the time and frequency domains; and analog and digital circuits and applications. Links to video lectures, lecture transcripts, assignments, and exams are included.  This course description is part of MIT OpenCourseWare, an initiative of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to put all of the educational materials from its undergraduate and graduate-level courses online and make them freely accessible.
