We can see how circuits work, and represent them with some simple diagrams, using basic electrical components like these. You start with a cell, or combination of cells. These could be batteries ...

When a switch is closed (on) it makes the circuit complete and electricity can travel around the circuit. If you add more cells to a series circuit, there will be more electrical energy to go ...

In this course, you will learn the purpose of each component in an equivalent-circuit model ... to use them to simulate cell behaviors under different load profiles. Prior knowledge needed: ECEA 5730, ...
