Introduction to electric and electronic circuits
[ELEC2525]
[30h + 30h] 5 credits
This course is taught in the 1st semester.
Teacher(s): Jean-Didier Legat, Michel Verleysen(supplée Jean-Didier Legat)
Language: French
Level: Second
Aims
- calculate DC, transient, periodic and frequency responses of circuits with resistors, capacitors and inductors,
- understand and describe the behavior of basic electronic components (diodes, MOS and bipolar circuits),
- use their knowledge of transistor responses to understand basic electronic circuits and comute their DC and transient responses
- design simple electronic circuits based on operational amplifiers,
- understand the principles of analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters,
- make electrical measures with standard measurement devices like oscilloscopes and multimeters
Main themes
