Analog Electronics ENG741

Hobart

Introduction

This unit expands on the first year study of electronic circuits to add a deeper understanding of the properties and characteristics of analogue electronics. Students will gain an understanding of analogue electrical systems and an understanding of how such systems can form part of larger technical systems. Fundamental skills will be gained in the analysis, modelling and implementation of low frequency electronic circuits and systems. Topics covered include: Diodes; simple rectifier circuits. Transistors; modelling, bias circuits, transistor amplifier topologies and characteristics, frequency response of amplifiers, small signal and power amplifiers design. Operational Amplifiers; characteristics, feedback circuits, analogue signal processing The unit prepares students to undertake future studies in Electronic/Communication Engineering.
