Evaluation scale

H-5

Content scheduling

The course will begin in week 3 and end in week 17.

Objective

After completing the course the student:
- is able to use multimeter and oscilloscope
- can name common components used in electronics and knows their basic characteristics
- can calculate currents, voltages and resistances as well as powers in simple circuits
- knows the basics of digital and analog blocks and their couplings in electronics.

Content

- Basic concepts of Circuit analysis and measurements: current, voltage, resistance, power
- Active and passive components used in electronics
- Basics of analog and digital electronics

Materials

Lecture notes, tasks and videos on the course's ITSlearning page

Teaching methods

Topics:
- Basic concepts of circuit analysis and measurements: current, voltage, resistance, power
- Basic usage of the oscilloscope to measure and analyse AC signals
- Basics of analog electronics
- Active and passive components used in electronics, such as transistors and operational amplifiers

Exam schedules

Test will take place in week 17.

International connections

During the course we will learn electronics skills fundamental for an ICT-engineer's background knowledge. Most of the learning happens in the electronics lab, during hands-on assignments where students work in pairs to build circuits and measure how they operate. We will also use some modern simulators during the course.

Completion alternatives

There is none

Student workload

Contact hours (lectures and lab sessions)
Independent study, using simulator, preparing for the labs and lab test, writing lab reports.


5 homeworks, 4 prereports on lab assignments, 4 lab reports and one test. Work will be distributed throughout the duration of the course.

Qualifications

High school mathematics courses (higher or subsidiary level)
OR
Primary+secondary school and vocational school maths curriculum and course: Introduction to Mathematics and Physics
OR
equivalent skills
