Credit may be earned in EET 210 and 212 or EET 208 and 209. Active Circuits I with Computer Simulation B 4 Sem Hrs Must be taken concurrently with EET 208. Presents small signal analysis of AC two-part parameters and design of circuitry involving bipolar junction transistors. Emphasizes loadlines, small-signal AC analysis models, and computer simulation of the circuits. Credit may be earned in EET 210 and 212 or EET 208 and 209.
Studies linear integrated circuit theory, frequency response and applications.
Emphasizes use of operational amplifiers for math operations, comparators, active filters, analog to digital converters, current and voltage controlled amplifiers, and the use of power boosting techniques. Covers phase locked loops, switching and fixed voltage regulators, integrated timing circuits, and function generators. Introduces computer electronics with an emphasis on programming microcontroller computers using the C programming language. Teaches students to design projects that combine hardware and software to applications that interface microcontrollers to other computers and to analog and digital circuits. 1 Sem Hr Develops skill in soldering and printed circuit board fabrication and repair, using commonly accepted industrial practices.
