After completing the course, the student should be able to both analyse and design a variety of electronic circuits involving common semiconductor components. This includes finding vital information from datasheets, perform calculations and simulations, and make well-founded choices. The student should also be able to build such circuits in the lab, and use common lab-equipment for testing, taking measurements and troubleshooting.
Lectures, theory exercises and laboratory assignments. Laboratory tasks as well as some of the theoretical assignments are mandatory. Reports from some of the laboratory tasks are part of the grading, and information about these is given at the start of the course. The results of all laboratory tasks are to be presented and demonstrated in the laboratory. Work on laboratory tasks takes place at the electronics laboratory and is done under the supervision of laboratory personnel, student assistant and/or subject teachers in groups of a maximum of 3 students. Training is provided in the use of subject-related software and hardware.
Expected workload for the average student: 270 hours.
