Learning Outcomes
Competences
The students are able to understand the operation of simple electric circuits and devices and to assess the meanings of electrical parameters.

The students can analyze simple electric circuits and calculate basic parameters.

Skills Knowledge
Know the description of electrical and magnetic vector fields (k1) Understand and derive physical relationships between electrical and magnetic fields on the one hand and currents and voltages on the other (k2/k3) Derive the component laws of basic components and understand their functionality (k2) Read circuit diagrams (k3/k4) Calculate currents, voltages and power in both time-invariant and time-variant cases (k3/k4) Observe safety rules (k1) The electrostatic field (Coulomb's law and electric field, potential and voltage, electric flux density and dielectric polarization, capacitance, energy content) Steady-state electric flow field (current and current density, resistance and Ohm's law, energy and power) Simple electric networks (reference arrows, ideal voltage and current sources, Kirchhoff's laws, resistive networks, real voltage and current sources, superposition principle, meshes and nodes) Steady-state magnetic field (force in magnetic field, current generates magnetic field, magnetic potential difference, magnetic flux, magnetic polarisation, magnetic circuit, inductance) Time-variable electromagnetic field (law of induction, mutual inductance, energy content, induction in stationary and moving coils) Alternating voltage and current (phasor diagram, complex analysis, voltage divider, resonance, energy and power) Switching transients in simple electric networks (networks with one energy storing component connected to DC voltage, networks with one energy storing component connected to AC voltage, networks with several energy storing components) Electronic components (diodes, bipolar transistor, field effect transistor) and basic circuits Electrical accidents (What is dangerous? How do you respond in case of emergency? Safety rules)

Further information This course, which was developed specifically for plastics technology, will be offered for the last time in SS 2025 by Diskus (expected to retire on 1.10.2025). It is planned to use the identically named but differently designed course 281ETELEETV20 as a replacement (Curriculum Mechatronics).

Understanding of voltage, current, and power and ability to calculate these quantities in both time-invariant and time-variant cases;

Stationary and moving charges generate fields, these in turn generate voltages and currents in devices and circuits, understanding of these contexts; Understanding of simple electronic devices.
