electronics. Design of practical and ideal operational amplifier circuits for
given transfer functions. Design of active filters. Design of non-linear and
pulse shaping circuits. Basic concepts of programmable controllers Spring
semester. Lecture 3 hours. Prerequisites:
Prerequisites:
ENEE 371, 372 with grade of C or better,
Corequisite: ENEE 378
Text book/references:
“Electronic Design”, 4th ed by Roden,
et.al., Discovery Press, 2002
Course Objectives: (numbers in brackets
indicate the relationship to engineering program outcomes)
To provide the student
with an understanding of basic design and analysis methods in digital and
analog circuits (1, 2, 4). Mathematical
and experimental methods will be examined to determine the limitations as well
as the power of these design techniques (1, 2, 3). Computer simulation in circuit design and
analysis will be demonstrated extensively (2).
Class/laboratory schedule:
Lecture either three times per week at 50 minutes
per class, or two times per week at 75 minutes per class.
