Lecturer :  Benoît Vanderheyden
Language(s) of instruction :  
French language
Organisation and examination :  
Teaching in the second semester
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. Basic components of an operational amplifier.
Learning outcomes of the course :  
To be able to explain the basic electronic devices and their functional behavior, to explain and use the elementary concepts that are necessary for analyzing analog electronic circuits.
Prerequisites and co-requisites/ Recommended optional programme components :  
Planned learning activities and teaching methods :  
Ex-cathedra sessions, exercice sessions (solving problems with a teaching assistant), numerical simulations of elementary circuits, laboratory sessions.
Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning) :  
Face-to-face.
Recommended or required readings :  
Copies of the slides and written notes.
Assessment methods and criteria :  
1) Tests at the end of the lab sessions.
2) Written exam on the material seen in lectures, exercice sessions, and labs.
For the June session, the final note is calculated as follows:
- lab tests, 10 % - theory part of the written exam, 30 % - exercice part of the written exam, 60 %
For the September session, the labs are not organized again and the note associated with the lab tests is that obtained in June.
A first note is calculated on the basis of the September written exam only (33 % theory and 67 % exercice). A second note is calculated by including the lab tests (same basis as in June). The final note is the best of the two.
