Overview

Course outline:
This course aims to develop an advanced understanding of frequency analysis of circuits. Topics include: manual Bode plot techniques for plotting magnitude and phase, breakpoints analysis. Operational amplifiers; design of circuits using opamps, practical limitations, frequency response, stability. Noise in circuits. Introduction to analogue filters. Oscillators. Use of Spice-based simulation software to simulate electronic circuits. Laboratory practicals in building and testing of circuits on bread-board, power supplies, switched mode circuits, and mixed signal systems.
