This course introduces students to the foundational principles of electronics, beginning with the scientific laws of atomic structure, electricity, and essential electrical safety practices. Students will build a strong understanding of core electrical concepts, including Ohm’s Law, current, voltage, resistance, power sources, and the proper use of DC (direct current) measuring instruments.
The course progresses to the study and analysis of complete electrical circuits, including series, parallel, and series-parallel configurations. Students will apply relevant laws, mathematical formulas, and problem-solving methods to analyze circuit behavior and performance. Additionally, students are introduced to alternating current (AC) through an exploration of how AC voltages and currents are generated, the principles of magnetism, and the effects of AC on electronic components such as inductors and capacitors. Emphasis is placed on AC testing procedures and practical applications, preparing students for further study in electronics, electrical technology, or related technical fields.
