Learning outcomes
The course extends the basic knowledge of analog and digital electronics and extends it toward electronic functional blocks. In the introduction, repeated the necessary knowledge bachelor's degree. The analog circuits are discussed in particular the basic functional blocks (amplifiers, power supplies, filters, generators, switches). The digital circuits are discussed general sequential logic and principles of custom circuits. The course also introduces the basic microcomputer architecture and provides an overview of communication buses and protocols. Students are able to define a basic analog functional blocks. Students are able to focus in digital circuits. Students are able to define the basic architecture of microprocessors.
Students will acquire the basic concepts and practice skills of the electronic componets and basic analog functional blocks.
