7. Course Outcomes: • Describe a solution with functional block diagrams (top-down design approach). • Work as a team to formulate and solve an engineering problem. • Use computer programs (such as MATLAB and SPICE) for optimizing design parameters and verify design performance.

8. Web Sites of Interest • Matlab Resources • Manuel on Matlab Basics • http://www.mathworks.com/access/helpdesk/help/pdf_doc/matlab/getstart.pdf • Download PDF on “Getting Started” and read sections on Introduction through Matrices and Arrays (Pages 1-1 to 2-19). • MATLAB Tutorials: • http://www.mathworks.com/academia/student_center/tutorials/index.html • A graphic description to step through basic exercises in Matlab. Should have Matlab open while going through this so you can try the examples. • Consider it homework this week to go through the interactive tutorial (about 2 hours). Nothing to hand in for it. • Octave (a Free Matlab Clone) • http://www.gnu.org/software/octave/

9. Web Sites of Interest • B2SPICE • Demos and Free Lite Version • http://www.beigebag.com/demos.htm • Students can download a free Lite Version on their own PCs. The Lite version has some functional limits but saved files that can be opened with university’s full version. • Within the B2SPICE program itself are simple tutorial (under the help menu) to get student started with using the basic function of the program.

10. Phasor Review • What is a complex number and why is it used to solve electrical engineering problems? • What is a phasor? Who introduced it to the profession? Why is it popular?

11. The Sinusoidal Function • Terms for describing sinusoids: Maximum Value, Amplitude, or Magnitude Phase Frequency in cycles/second or Hertz (Hz) Radian Frequency in Radian/second .4 .2

12. Trigonometric Identities Radian to degree conversion multiply by 180/ Degree to radian conversion multiply by /180

13. Complex Numbers Each point in the complex number plane can be represented in a Cartesian or polar format.

14. Complex Arithmetic • Addition: Multiplication and Division: Simple conversions:

15. Euler’s Formula • Show: • A series expansion ….

16. Complex Forcing Function • Consider a sinusoidal forcing function given as a complex function: • Based on the concept of orthogonality, it can be shown that for a linear system, the real part of the forcing function only affects the real part of the response and the imaginary part of the forcing function only affect the imaginary part of the response. • For a linear circuit excited by a sinusoidal function, the steady-state response everywhere has the same frequency. Only the magnitude and phase of the response can change. • A useful factorization:

17. Mechanical Analogy • Electrical: Energy transfers between electric field (capacitor) and magnetic field (inductor) • Mechanical: Energy transfers between gravitational field and elasticity of spring. • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7fRGXc9SBI • Note: Every part of the spring moves at the same frequency, only the phase and magnitude of the oscillation changes. The same is true for a linear RLC circuit.

18. Phasors • Sinusoidal function notation for linear circuits can be more efficient if the exp(-jt) is dropped, leaving the magnitude and phase quantities maintained via phasor notation: Examples …

19. Phasors Examples • Find the equivalent impedances Z for the circuits below at a frequency of 60 Hz: 20 mH 15  .1 mF Z 10  Show Z = 8.1+j*5.5 = 9.8334.33
