Agian, they learn about IV characteristics. Students bias and the FET circuits and study behavior. Finally, students study common emitter and common source configurations of FET's. Electronics Lab II picks up where Electronics Lab I ended. Students study more complex transistor circuits including current mirrors and differential amplifiers.
Juniors begin to study frequency response and transient response of diodes and transistors.
Students then study frequency compensation on operational amplifiers before getting into the last two labs on active and passive filters and NMOS and CMOS logic gates. The last four weeks of Electronics Lab II is reserved for a Junior Design Project. Students work in teams but are each responsible for their own project. Each student is required to present his or her project to the lab class. This prepares juniors for the up and coming, more involved, Senior Design Project.
