This course continues cadet education in electrical engineering through the study of basic electronic devices and circuits. It begins with an introduction to semiconductor physics. It then covers the operation of the pn-junction diode and the metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) in DC, large-signal, and small-signal regimes. The course emphasizes single-stage amplifier design. The course concludes with an introduction to bipolar junction
transistors (BJT) and the design, analysis, simulation, building, and testing of a two-stage audio amplifier. Six laboratory exercises and computer-aided design and analysis using modern circuit simulation software supplement the lectures with practical circuit analysis, design, construction and testing. |

This course continues cadet education in electrical engineering through the study of basic electronic devices and circuits. It begins with an introduction to the ideal operational amplifier and its applications. It then covers the operation of the pn-junction diode and the bipolar junction transistor (BJT) in DC, large-signal, and small-signal regimes. The course emphasizes single-stage amplifier design. The course concludes with an introduction to field-effect transistors and the design, analysis, simulation, building, and testing of a two-stage audio amplifier. Three laboratory exercises, three mini-labs, and computer-aided simulations using the Cadence suite of software supplement the lectures with practical circuit analysis, design, construction and testing. |

This course continues cadet education in electrical engineering through the study of basic electronic devices and circuits. It begins with an introduction to semi-conductor device physics. Students study the pn-junction diode and the bipolar junction transistor in the DC, small-signal, and large-signal operation. The course emphasizes single-stage amplifier design that culminates in an audio amplifier project. The course concludes with frequency analysis of amplifier circuits and an introduction to field-effect transistors. Three laboratory exercises, three mini-labs, a calculator-based equation solving exercise and computer-aided simulations supplement the lectures with practical circuit analysis, design, construction and testing. |
