Detailed Syllabus:
Level 1: Analog & Digital Electronics
Course Duration: 20 Hours
Evaluation Process: Practical Exam with Project Work
This is an introductory experimental laboratory that explores the design, construction, and
debugging of analog electronic circuits. This subject covers diodes, transistors, JFETs, op-amps,
and basic analog circuit design as applied to audio and radio frequency circuits. Students will
spend the second half of the term designing their own projects. Projects vary in scope and
breadth, depending on students' level of prior background and interest. In the process, students
will learn to understand and use a wide variety of analog circuits. They will learn how to use
books and periodicals to find circuit ideas and to supplement their textbook knowledge.
Demonstration on use of TINA CAD for modeling and simulation of analog circuits will be
illustrated.
