Requirements
Students need no prerequisite knowledge for this course except basic math, including addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
Description
You will become proficient in using the basic tools to perfore necessary calculations in the analysis of an electronic circuit. You will use given quantities of volts, amps, ohms or watts to calculate the other characteristics of simple electronic circuits. To do this, you will be taught the proper use of a tool called the Ohm's Law Wheel. Additional topics include Watts and Power, Scientific Notation, Significant Digits and Rounding Off numbers. This will introduce you to how electronics professionals, hobbyists and engineers deal with the mathematics of electronics. This course provides you with eleven video presentations lasting more than 2-1/2 hours.
