TEXT: A. S. Sedra and K. C.
Smith, Microelectronic Circuits,
5th Edition,
PREREQUISITES: E246.
COURSE DESCRIPTION: This is the electronics course for electrical
engineering students to provide an in-depth understanding of electronic circuit
design and analysis. The primary emphasis of this class will be to cultivate an
understanding of how modern electronic circuits work. Specific topics to be
covered include differential and multistage amplifiers, amplifier frequency
response and feedback, output stages, power amplifiers, a selection of analog
integrated circuit topics, filters and tuned amplifiers, waveform-shaping
circuits, and MOS digitalcircuits. This corresponds
to Chapters 6, 7, 8, 9 and 11 in Sedra and Smith.
Assignments and projects: Hands on learning with computer based learning approaches will include simulation in the SPICE circuit simulation program. Several lab and homework assignments in this class will require the use of a version of SPICE that runs under Windows. The student edition is inside the book cover.

You
are strongly encouraged to read ahead of the lectures. After each lecture, you should
review the corresponding material in the textbook and then read the next
section or two before the following lecture. This familiarization process will
allow you to digest information from the lectures more easily.
The
following sections of Sedra and Smith will be covered
in this class: A quick review of chapters 1, 2, 4, and 5, then
7,8,12,13,14
Homework
Homework problems will be assigned weekly. These problem sets will be collected and graded. Homework assignments turned in up to 24 hours late will be penalized 25% (i.e., multiply your score by 0.75). Assignments turned in more than 24 hours late will not be accepted. Your lowest homework grade will be dropped. Unless otherwise specified, homework assignments will be handed in during Friday’s lecture.
OTHER COURSE INFORMATION: You are responsible for all material covered in class,
in assigned readings, and on homework assignments. You are expected to attend
class. I encourage you to come to my office hours whenever you have any
questions concerning the course. I enjoy working with students, and am happy to
meet with you.
If you are going to miss an exam, you must
make prior arrangements with me in order to take the exam before the
scheduled date. Homework will be assigned and graded. You are encouraged to
form groups to work together on homework to solidify your knowledge of the
material.
