Study Guide

Objective

After completing the course the student:
- should be familiar with fundamental electronic circuits.
- is able to design simple analog signal processing functions using operational amplifiers.
- is able to design small signal amplifiers using transistors.

Content

- diodes
- operational amplifiers
- bipolar transistors andMOSFETs

Materials

Will be informed on the first lecture

Teaching methods

Lectures (12h)
Lab exercises (3*12h)

Exam schedules

To be agreed during the course

International connections

The lecture will introduce the theory required for the lab exercise. Implementing and measuring the actual circuits gives deeper understanding.

Completion alternatives

N/A

Student workload

Depends on the corona situation.

Simulations
Lab work
Or any combination of these

Content scheduling

The course covers basics of electronics plus some of the typical circuits and components required in embedded systems, when interfacing microcontrollers to the external world.

Evaluation scale

H-5

Assessment methods and criteria

Grading methods depend on the corona-situation.

It can be based on:

Individually graded lab reports
Number of competed simulations
Or something between. Will be discussed in the beginning of the course.
