ECE101-Electron Devices and Circuits

LTPC 3 0 2 4 Aims and Objectives: To give the students a solid background of solid state devices. To apply that knowledge to understand and develop simple electronic circuits. To design amplifiers under different configurations and study their parameters To study the devices under low frequency for small signals To simulate the above using soft tools and compare their output with hard-wired circuitry. Learning Outcome: Demystification of Electronics. Ability to use it as a tool to solve real life problems. Gain full confidence to work with devices in various types of circuits.
