Instructional Objectives
- Course Catalog Description
- Electronic Instrumentation and Measurement 3 credits. Lecture course with laboratory requirements. Topics include: DC and AC Electrical Circuits, Analog pulses, Bipolar Transistors, Field Effect Transistors, Operational amplifiers.
Prequisites: Phys 2212 and Phys 2214, Math 1170,1175,2275,3360
- Course Description
- A practical course introducing the fundamental concepts of analog electronics. One third of the course will be used to describe the concepts in a lecture setting with the remaining time spent in a laboratory setting applying the concepts. The course begins with a review of DC and AC analog circuits. Semiconductor physics is introduced to lead into a study of transistors. The use of bipolar transistors for saturated and unsaturated switches is explored. The field effect transistor (FET)is compared with the bipolar transistor.
