0306-460 - Electronics for Computer Engineers

Institution:

Rochester Institute of Technology

Subject:

Description:

This course presents an introduction to electronics and covers basic principles of small-signal analysis of circuits with semiconductor devices, such as diodes, BJTs and MOSFETs. The p-n junction is introduced, followed by a study of bipolar junction transistor function. Includes: Rectifi cation and power supply fi ltering and the basic operation and biasing of bipolar junction transistors; Basic MOSFET current-voltage characteristics; DC biasing of MOS circuits, including integrated-circuit current sources/mirrors; Small-signal analysis of single-stage MOS amplifi ers; Frequency response of BJT and MOS amplifi ers; Feedback and stability in amplifi ers; Ideal operational amplifi ers in inverting, non-inverting and integrator confi gurations. Emphasis is placed on developing skills required for circuit analysis. Lab deals with basic experiments in electronics. (0301-382) Class 4, Credit 4
