Prof. Rich Kozick

Homework 1


Date Assigned: Wednesday, August 25, 2004
Date Due: Friday, August 27, 2004 and week of August 30

  1. Please review your texts and notes from ELEC 120 and ELEC 225-226. In particular, review the concepts of phasors and impedance for circuits that contain capacitors, inductors, and resistors. Also review operational amplifiers and "frequency response" of filters.

  2. Please review Sections B.1-B.3 in the Lathi text on complex numbers and sketching signals.

    The textbook should be in the bookstore by Monday, August 30. Until then, you can find pages 1-22 of the textbook on the course web page under Class Notes.

  3. Please work on designing the low-pass, high-pass, and band-pass filters specified on the Laboratory 1 assignment. Note that there are many different circuits that can satisfy the design specifications. Take your time, ask plenty of questions, and try to understand the fundamental concepts.
Thank you.
