Lecture 1 - Introduction to Electrical
Engineering
Overview of Electrical
Engineering
• Electrical engineers design
systems with two main
objectives: to…
– Gather, store, process, transport
or present information
– Distribute, and convert energy
between different forms
• Electrical systems can be
divided into seven major
classifications.

Circuit Theory
• Mathematical modeling of
physical phenomena
• Circuit theory is a special case of
electromagnetic field theory
– General EM theory is more
complex than circuit theory
– General EM theory requires more
complex mathematics
Three Basic Assumptions of
Circuit Theory
• Electric effects happen
instantaneously throughout a
system
• Net Charge on every
component in the system is zero
• No magnetic coupling between
components

Problem Solving
• Identify what is given and
what is to be found.
• Sketch a circuit diagram or
other visual model
• Think of several solution
methods and a way of
choosing between them
• Calculate a solution
Problem Solving (continued)
• Use your creativity
– If your efforts are not converging
to a solution, you may want to
rethink your assumptions.
• Test your solution
– Is your answer reasonable?
– Does your answer validate your
assumptions?

Circuit Analysis: An
Overview
• A circuit model is used to
connect our visualization to our
analysis of a physical system
• The elements of our circuit
model are ideal circuit
components.
• The behavior of output
parameters is governed by
physical/mathematical laws for
the elements of the circuit
model.
Voltage and Current
• Voltage is the energy per unit of charge.
dw

dq
• Current is the rate of flow of charge.
dq

Voltage and Current
(continued)
• The relationship between
voltage and current in a circuit
element defines that circuit
element.
• Both voltage and current have
associated polarities.
• These polarities determine the
direction of power flow.
Ideal Basic Circuit Element
• Three attributes of an ideal circuit element:
– There are only two terminals
– Described mathematically in terms of current
and/or voltage
– Cannot be subdivided into smaller components

• Positive v
– voltage drop from 1 to 2 or
– voltage rise from 2 to 1
• Negative v
– voltage drop from 2 to 1 or
– voltage rise from 1 to 2

• Whenever the reference direction for the
current in an element is in the direction of the
reference voltage drop, use a positive sign in
any expression that relates voltage to current.
Otherwise, use a negative sign.

• Power associated with a circuit element is
consumed by that circuit element when the
value of power is positive.
• Conversely, power is generated, or produced
by the element if the value consumed is
negative.
