Course contents (core content level)

Digital circuits, joining the analog and the digital circuits:
? Logic families (CMOS, TTL) and using them
? AD- and DA-converters: conversion principles and using them
? Semiconductor switches and their applications: multiplexers, S/H-circuits, digital control of the analog circuits
? Removing interference, shielding and isolation (optoisolators)
Power supplies, voltage regulation:
? Principles of linear and switching regulators and basis for choosing a regulator
Design problem:
? To design and construct an electronic system, for example to amplify and filter a given noisy signal with a given DC- and
AC- accuracy
Amplifiers:
? Amplifier frequency response, multistage amplifiers
? Feedback and frequency compensation
? The internal structure of an opamp, non-idealities and their effect on the circuit behaviour and design
? Design of a transistor amplifier (BJT, FET)
Filters and oscillators:
? Active filters
? Sine wave and square wave oscillators, triangle wave oscillators, voltage-controlled oscillators, voltage to frequency
? Conversion, timer circuits
Power supplies and regulators:
? Linear regulator circuits and how to design with them, switching supplies and DC-DC converters
? Voltage and current references
Design project:
? Developing an electronic system

Core content level learning outcomes (knowledge and understanding)

The aim of the unit is to familiarise the student with the most important circuit solutions and components used in the applications of the information technology (as measuring, control and signal processing applications). Previously (in the unit Electronics 1) presented component models and circuit solutions will be improved so that the student will be able to design circuits that operate as required in most cases in practical applications. The student will also know the restrictions of the circuits.

It is possible for the student to design, construct and test a circuit related to each part of the unit (controllable measurement amplifier, filter, AD- and DA-converter circuit).

Core content level learning outcomes (skills)
