Learning Outcomes

The course first introduces the basic building blocks of analogue electronic circuits, then describes the DC behaviour of BJT and introduces the general concept of amplification. More focus on the AC behaviour of the BJT and amplification of small signals. This course will also present a practical way to analyse complex Electronic systems by combining simple models of individual sub-systems. The frequency behaviour of some electronic systems will also be studied and application to filter design and description of the process of building electronic filters. The course will also teach the student how to use computer based design tools to design and simulate electronic systemsss
