About the Course

This course explains how to analyze circuits that have alternating current (AC) voltage or current sources. Circuits with resistors, capacitors, and inductors are covered, both analytically and experimentally. Some practical applications in sensors are demonstrated....

It's quite tough and hard actually, but if you commit I'm sure you can get along with it, and don't worry they'll give you a lot of exercise to make sure that you've already understood the concepts.

This course is not very easy, there are so many materials to be presented, and also equations and methods, but if you do put efforts in it, you will get most out of it.

This course gives the incite towards the analysis of circuits with respect to alternating sources. The whole course if nicely presented and is a much better package than the part one of the series. Highly recommended.

Es un excelente curso, muy explicativo, me sirvió de mucho como complemento a una asignatura que tengo en la carrera de Ingeniería en Electricidad.

Buenos profesores, se entiende bien lo que quieren decir.

A good elementary course for those who are interested in circuit, clear and good explain from the lectures and useful exams and quiz. One thing for suggested might be provided the details of the exams.

As a graduate of electrical and electronics engineering, I think that this is a great course for anyone who wants to learn the fundamentals of AC circuit analysis or for engineers who want to refreash most of the things that they've learned about AC circuits. What I liked the most about this course is the way it presented electrical signal analysis of AC circuits. I loved the lab demo as well.

However, in my opinion this course needs to add more problems for students to solve. The best way to learn and master circuit analysis is by practicing on problem solving.

In skipping over the physics that actually connects everything, the explanations become muddled and one is required to use rote memorization for many of the applications. Tipping a toe in theory would have helped this course tremendously. A good example is the last quiz where the final 2 problems are unnecessarily hard because reflected impedance is only mentioned but not delved into. I'm reviewing the concepts here rather than taking everything fresh, so I was fine, but it is ripe for problems. I found the same problems throughout.

There is also the problem of a significant programming issues and outright errors in some of the problems and quizzes - look at the forums for some examples. This is due to this course being neglected for a very long time by its creators. The 1st course had these as well.

In addition, the 1st course had a ton of tutorial problem solving videos. These completely petered out in this course. Why?

In general, this is one of the only beginner's electronics courses on Coursera. And, due to the problems mentioned, is lacking. As this is a jumping off point for a number of the higher quality Specializations if one has not already learned this stuff, this needs rectified. Either by the original instructors or commisioning a new course. Overall, the 1st 2 courses cover what you will need later, but in an uneven way. Sometimes great, often spotty. And often skipping the theory necessary to develop an intuition for basic electronics.

This is an excellent addition to the previous course, DC Analysis. It may be surprising, but this course seemed quite a bit easier than the DC course. There is far more material in the DC Analysis course. So, if you understood the material in the DC course, you should have no problems here. The biggest difference is that everything will be done using complex numbers and sinusoids. This couse also has far fewer errors in the answers than did the DC course. You will need to understand the material in the first course, as everything is built on that. You will also need to be proficient in algebra and calculus.

I really enjoyed this refresher. This particular class has very few errors and does a really great job explaining the topics. The quizzes are particularly short--more homework problems would be useful, I think. Really appreciate the time and effort that went into making this class and allowing it to be public. Thank you!

I loved the linear approach to AC components and their analysis. It was step by sttep and simple to undeerstand and follow. The Practice exercises are just the right amount and difficulty. Helped me a lot to make my skills in AC circuits analysis a lot stronger.

Great course, made me remember somethings related to filters and ac circuits in general I had in high school, as well as learning entirely new subjects with a focus on exercises.
