Exam Information:

  • This midterm exam is a 75 minute exam given during the regularly scheduled class meeting.

  • This midterm covers material from Chapters 5, 6 7, and 8. In particular:
    • Circuit Theorems
      • Source transformations.
      • Superposition.
      • Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuits.
      • Maximum power transfer.
    • Op amps
      • Ideal op amps.
      • Node equations for op amp circuits.
      • Standard op amp circuits.
    • Circuits containing capacitors and inductors.
      • Using the element equations.
      • Dc and switched DC circuits.
      • Series and parallel combinations.
    • First-order circuits.
      • Step functions and switches.
      • Steady state response and initial conditions.
      • Time constants.
      • Analysis using Thevenin and Norton equivalent circuits.
      • Plots of voltages or currents.
  • This midterm exam will be "closed book, closed notes" but I will provide a "crib sheet".
  • Bring a calculator.
