Electronic Devices

Catalog description

This course introduces electronic devices as components of electrical circuits that are responsible for regulating flow of current for information processing and system control. Topics include semiconductors, diodes and applications, light-emitting diodes, bipolar junction transistors, FETs, basic op-amp circuits, active filters and oscillators, voltage regulators. Students learn how to apply basic electronic theory to analytical problem solving, experimentation, and circuit design relevant to the usage of the various electronic devices.
