| Duration : | 30h Th, 45h Pr |
|
| Credits/ECTS : |
|
|
| Holder(s) : | Henri‑Pierre Garnir |
|
| Language : | Langue française |
|
| Course contents : | Introduction of the basic concepts of electronic (analogic and digital) insisting on the modern techniques of data acquisition and handling used in laboratory environment. |
|
| Course objective : | 1.- Solid state physics of semi-conductors
(diode, transistor, bipolar, FET, etc...)
2.- Analog circuitry:
filter, transistor amplifier, operational amplifier (feedback)
3.- Non linear electronic : trigger, oscillator,...
4.- Digital electronic : gate, flip-flop, counter, PAL, memory, ...
5.- ADC/DAC (with sampling theory)
6.- The micro processor (computer)
7.- Data acquisition, representation, and conversion
(noise theory and reduction)
8.- Recent progress in experimental techniques: case studies
digital scope, SQUID, atom and ion traps, GSM, GPS, etc...

|
| Prerequisites : | Bachelor degree in sciences (physics) |
|
| Workshops : | Practical work on electronic bench is proposed. The students learn how to handle electronic components and construct simple circuits.
Micro-controller programming (in C language) is also performed in order to control simple systems.
Computers are available to analyze the data. |
|
| Organization : | Teaching: 2 hours twice a week (first "quadrimestre").
Exercises: one afternoon (14h-18h) each week (first "quadrimestre").
|
|
| Written notes : | Lecture notes are available (200 p.) from the teacher or, in .pdf, from the web site.
