/ An introductory course in analog and digital electronics with an emphasis on the analysis, design, construction, and evaluation of working electronic devices. Topics include DC circuit analysis techniques (Ohm’s Law, Kirchhoff’s Laws, Mesh & Nodal Analysis, Thevenin & Norton equivalent circuits, and Superposition). Time-dependent (RC, RL) circuits. AC circuits (sinusoidal analysis, complex variables, phasors). Resonant circuits, transformers, and filters. Diode circuits (voltage limiters, rectifiers). Transistor (BJT, FET) circuits and switching. Analysis and design of operational amplifier circuits. Introduction to digital logic and Boolean algebra. Design, construction, and evaluation of digital logic circuits, prototyping, and testing. Lectures and one laboratory period per week. Prerequisites: ENGR 152 or PHYS 122, and MATH 132. Fall semester, alternate years.
