The Circuit Analysis Papers is categorized under the second semester of the BE in Electronics and Communication Engineering course. The students need to clear their view about the different basic rules and principles of circuits.

Importance of the subject:

The circuit analysis paper holds the circuital knowledge of the electric devices that are mostly used in laboratories. The general principles included to understand the basics of the circuit analysis. The description of this subject is based on the RC RL and RLC circuits and also on steady analysis of an instrument.

Paper pattern:

In general, the BE in Electronics and Communication Engineering course the paper pattern is similar for all the cases. The Anna University 2nd Sem-Circuit Analysis Papers holds a maximum of two major parts A and B under which the questions are arranged according to the marks. The first part of this paper contains short answer type questions. There are only ten questions in first part and the second one contains five questions. The total marks allotted for the second part questions are 80.

Frequently asked questions:

Generally, the short notes types’ questions are repeated in most of the times from the 2nd Sem-Circuit Analysis Papers. The frequent questions are RL, RC circuits, RMS value, form factor, series and parallel circuits etc. Some of the questions that are also important for the students are thevenin theorems, Norton theorems etc.

Time and marks:

The total time span that an individual get to solve the entire mandatory questions from the Anna University BE in Electronics and Communication Engineering 2nd Sem-Circuit Analysis Papers is three hours. The full marks given to this paper is 100.
