EEEN20040 Electronic Circuits

Academic Year 2020/2021

This course deals with the analysis and design of electronic circuits containing diodes and transistors. Topics that are covered include:
- Physical operation and modeling of diodes (pn junction diode, zener diode) and transistors (MOSFET, BJT)
- DC analysis, large-signal and small-signal analysis of basic electronic circuits containing diodes and transistors.
- Design of basic electronic circuits, including simulation and laboratory exercises.
