5. Related Courses:
ECT 321 A.C. circuit analysis using both time and phasor domains. General
methods of analysis covering nodal voltages and mesh currents. Network
theorems comprising: superposition, Norton's, Thevenin's, Millman's, reciprocity,
and maximum power transfer. Power factor correction in addition to delta to/from
wye transformations.
ECT 324 This course is designed to increase students understanding of transistors,
transistor-based circuits, and applications of transistors as amplifiers. D.C. biasing
of transistors, various transistor-based circuit configurations, and amplification of
A.C. signals will be covered. Students will analyze, design, and build single-stage
and multi-stage transistor-based circuits. Circuit modeling will be used to assist in
the analysis, design, and construction of circuits.
ECT 325 Theory and application of monolithic analog integrated precision circuits
used in performance measurements and programmable-gain amplifiers. The
circuitry is adaptable to D.C. and A.C. performance of operational amplifiers used
as bridges, active and passive filters, choppers, phase-error reduction, and A/D
interfacing.
6. Related Courses:
ECT 343 Semiconductor pulse circuits and special adaptations found in electronic
circuits. Pulse and switching theory, network theorems, and semiconductor theory
in the operation and analysis of practical working circuits.
ECT 403 Introduces the Hardware Description Language (HDL) for developing,
verifying, and synthesizing designs of digital circuits. CAE tools are used to design
circuits for Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) and/or Field
Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) implementation.
ECT 421 Applications of derivatives and antiderivatives of polynomial, logarithmic,
exponential, and trigonometric functions to the analysis of electronic circuits
subjected to time varying currents.
7. Related Courses:
ECT 437 Evaluation of control computers in an industrial environment; the direct
and indirect cost trade-off of implementing a hardwired vs. a programmed
controller. The effect of management decisions on industrial computer applications.
Economics of open and closed systems, software vs. hardware, in-house vs. contract
maintenance, and multi-vendor vs. single vendor systems.
ECT 444 Industrial programmable logic controllers (PLCs), relays, contractors, switches,
time delays, sequencers, timers, ladder diagrams, codes and standards
(NEC, NEMA, etc.)
ECT 448 Industrial electronic circuits and systems, single and three-phase rectification,
current control by SCRs, TRIACs, thyratrons, and magnetic amplifiers. Phase shift,
frequency control, protection circuitry, and heat sinking are developed and integrated
into the systems. Further investigation is included in motors, standards, and control
utilizing programmable logic controllers.

emphasis upon principles and practices of human behavior
and human relations within the industrial environment.
9. Extra Courses:
MET 299 – CAD Fundamentals
This course provides an understanding of the practical aspects of a variety of PC CAD software
packages. Emphasis is placed on applying of the software to the student's area of study.
MET203 – Introduction to Solid Modeling
Utilizing Commercial CAD software, the concepts of 3-D graphics are introduced. These
concepts include wire frame transformations and Boolean operations. .
MET 403 – Advanced Computer-Aided Design (CAD) Concepts
In this course, subject matter relevant to CAD in today's industry will be identified. The student
will gain the knowledge necessary to conceptualize the system-user relationship. The
completion of the required learning tasks will ensure the student's comprehension of each
concept. These tasks are arranged in a hierarchy that will build the student's ability to apply the
concepts presented. Students will progress from two-dimensional drafting system to three-
dimensional modeling system.
