By completing this course, the students have gained the basic knowledge about electric circuits and their individual components and know how to use various methods to analyze and validate electric circuits. Students have acquired an overview about the principles of transmitting information (signals) via electric circuits. They acquired an insight in the basic signal processing and conditioning and can apply this knowledge for integrating sensors into control systems. Students also gained practical skill in soldering, reading and understanding datasheets, and compiling technical documentation for electric circuits.
