Credit points: 15

Subject outline

This unit builds on the material introduced in ELE1IEL and serves as a sound background for continuing studies in this discipline. This unit consists of two components, AC circuit analysis and analog electronics. The first component covers sinusoidal and non-sinusoidal waveforms, phasors, impedance, network theorems applied to AC circuits, measurement systems and instruments. The second component covers amplifier concepts, operational amplifiers, transistor models and transistor amplifiers. All students will be required to sit for both components.
