| Holder(s) : | Benoît Vanderheyden | |
|  | | |
|  | | |
| Course contents :
| Diodes, bipolar junction transistors, and field-effect transistors. Diode circuits. Basic single stage amplifier configurations. Biasing devices and achieving thermal stability. Small-signal equivalent circuit models. Differential and multistage amplifiers. Frequency response. Frequency poles. Miller effect. Cascode amplifier. Power amplifiers and power output stages. Basic components of an operational amplifier. | |
|  | | |
| Course objective :
| The objectives are two fowfold: first, to present the basic electronic devices and their functional behavior, and second, to expose the elementary concepts that are necessary for analyzing and designing analog electronic circuits. | |
|  | | |
| Workshops :
| Exercice sessions (solving problems with a teaching assistant), numerical simulations of elementary circuits, laboratory sessions. | |
|  | | |
| Organization :
| The course is scheduled for the first semester. Labs begin either at the end of the first semester or at the beginning of the second one. Their schedule will be posted in due time. | |
|  | | |
| Written notes :
| Textbook: Sedra et Smith, Microelectronic Circuits (Oxford). A copy of the lectures' slides, of the laboratory notes, and of the exercice sessions' notes can be purchased at "la Centrale des Cours de l'AEES" (http://www.aees.misc.ulg.ac.be/cdc/) or can be consulted by addressing a request to the lecturer. | |
|  | | |
| Assessment :
| A written exam on the content of the lectures, the exercice sessions, and the labs. | |
