Favorable conditions never come.”CS LewisInteraction“It often happens that two students can solve difficulties in their work for one another better than the master can. When you took the problem to a master, as we all remember, he was very likely to explain what you understood already, to add a great deal of information which you didn’t want, and say nothing at all about the thing that was puzzling you. I have watched this from both sides of the net; for when, as a teacher myself, I have tried to answer questions brought me by students, I have sometimes, after a minute, seen that expression settle down on their faces which assured me that they were suffering exactly the same frustration which I had suffered from my own teachers. The fellow-student can help more than the master because he knows less. The difficulty we want him to explain is one he has recently met. The expert met it so long ago that he has forgotten.He sees the whole subject, by now, in a different light that he cannot conceive what is really troubling the student; he sees a dozen other difficulties which ought to be troubling him but aren’t.” CS LewisPractice“Engineering is a human cultural activity that involves an interplay between theory, experiment and imagination, in which human beings form and transform nature for practical ends and purposes, with the aid of tools and procedures.”Responsible TechnologyScheduleTopics Chapter # of classesIntroduction to Electronics (Review) 1 2 -Signals and Frequency Spectrum-Analog and Digital Signals-Amplifiers and Models-Circuit Models for Amplifiers-Frequency Response of AmplifiersOperation Amplifiers 2 6 -The Ideal Amplifier-Circuits Containing Ideal Opamps-Inverting and Non-inverting Configurations-Examples-Effect of Finite Open Loop Gain-Large-Signal Operation-DC ImperfectionsDiodes3 6-The Ideal Diode-Terminal Characteristics of Junction Diodes-Physical Operation-Analysis of Diode Circuits-The Small-Signal Model-Zener Diodes-Rectifier Circuits-Limiting and Clamping Circuits-The PSpice Models and SimulationNo classes on October 4, 7 and 9Take Home Exam I: Chapters 1 – 3 Due October 12.Bipolar Junction Transistors 4 9-Physical Structure and Modes of Operation-Operation of the npn Transistor in the Active Mode-The pnp Transistor-Circuit Symbols and Conventions-Graphical Representation-Analysis at DC-The Transistor as an Amplifier-Small-signal Equivalent Circuits-Biasing Single-Stage BJT Amplifier-The Transistor as a Switch-Large-Signal Model-The Complete Static Characteristics-The PSpice Model and ExamplesField Effect Transistors 5 9-Structure and Operation of the Enhancement -Type MOSE-V-I Characteristics of the Enhancement-Type MOSFET-The Depletion-Type MOSFET-MOSFET Circuits at DC-The MOSFET as an Amplifier Individual Projects (for extra credit – see EDN’s Design ideas on CD)Take Home Exam II: Chapter 4 – 5 Due November 17Christian Perspective on Microelectronics Discussion 1Lab Schedule:1 – 9/12 Familiarity with Cadence and Lab Instruments2 – 9/19 Operational Amplifiers3 – 9/26 Junction-Diode Basics4 – 10/3 Electronics Shop (Report to E-Shop Room SB039)5 – 10/10 Electronics Shop (Report to E-Shop Room SB039)6 – 10/17 Junction-Diode Basics7 – 10/24 Bipolar-Transistors Basics8 – 10/31 MOSFET Measurement and Applications9 – 11/7 Power Supply9 – 11/14 The BJT Differential Pair Applications10 –11/21 Single-BJT amplifiers (Low and High Frequencies)11 – 11/28 Personal Projects12 – 12/5 Personal Projects13 – 12/12 Personal ProjectsBasic Homework Assignments (Minimum List)Students are recommended to work out most of the problems in the back of each assigned chapter.
