The vast majority of the lectures, homework and laboratories deal with the application of circuit theory to analyze and design simple RC and opamp circuits. Mathematical formulations are commonplace throughout the course. All laboratory experiments require students to build circuits, collect data, and analyze data to demonstrate that the circuits perform as designed. An ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams. Students work in teams of 3 in the laboratory.
Students rotate to new tasks in each experiment.
By the end of the quarter, each student will have performed all tasks as members of a team. The homework and laboratory experiments involve solving engineering problems identified in the assignments or in the experiment descriptions. Students are required to write and submit laboratory report for each experiment.
