CEN 151 - DC Electronics


7.0 Credits
Basics of DC circuits covers components used in DC circuits i.e. resistors, capacitors, diodes; introduction to digital. Building, testing, and troubleshooting with basic test equipment; basic circuit analysis using component theory and algebra. Prerequisite: High school algebra or instructor’s permission.

Course Objectives
Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to:

  1. Identify a variety of electronic components and state their rated values. [REASON]
  2. Construct and test DC circuits using a power supply and test equipment. [REASON]
  3. Analyze DC resistive circuits using basic math and Ohm’s. [REASON]
  4. Troubleshoot a DC circuit to isolate a short or open in the circuit with standard test equipment. [REASON]
  5. Analyze, test, and troubleshoot RC circuits with a DC pulse voltage source. [REASON]
  6. Perform functional tests and troubleshoot a small digital system. [REASON]
