SYLLABUS FOR ECE 231 COURSE : Elements of Electrical Engineering, ECE 231 TEXTS :Giorgio Rizzoni, Fundamentals of Electrical

Engineering, McGraw-Hill, 2009 REFERENCE -Wolf & Smith, Student Reference Manual for Electronic Instrumentation Laboratories , Prentice Hall, 2004. And J. R. Cogdell, Foundations of Electric Circuits, Prentice Hall, 1999 A fair portion of the material covered in this class is NOT in the textbooks. I suggest that you take good notes and use the many references in the library.

HOMEWORK : PROBLEMS WILL BE SUGGESTED BY THE INSTRUCTOR (See the Course Outline below.) LAB : ECE 231 LAB MUST BE TAKEN CONCURRENTLY WITH THE LECTURE.
