Aims

The module aims to broaden the students' knowledge and understanding of linear electronic circuit design, and also to provide students with practical skills necessary to design, analyse and simulate and manufacture electronic circuits.

Learning Outcomes

1.
Discuss analogue circuit operations and design for signal measurement, data acquisition and processing
2.
Design, evaluate and produce op-amp based filter, amplifier, D/A, and A/D circuits
3.
Use CAD tools for circuit design and simulation
4.
Use CAD tools for PCB-level, simulation

Module Content

Outline Syllabus:1. Amplifier circuits Review of transistors: modelling, biasing and amplifiers. Linear integrated circuits: differential amplifiers, current mirrors. Power control: regulation, rectification and power amplification. 2. Op-amp applications Design of analogue systems using op-amps: active filters, oscillators, A/D converters for measurement, instrumentation and data acquisition, understanding relevant parameters such as bandwidth, precision, slew rate, feedback, stability.
Module Overview:
This module aims to broaden your knowledge and understanding of linear electronic circuit design, and also to provide you with the practical skills necessary to design, analyse, simulate and manufacture electronic circuits. This module will provide you with the intermediate level tools and skills necessary to design, test, implement and manufacture electronic circuits.
Additional Information:This Level 5 module will provide undergraduate students in electronic design with intermediate level tools and skills necessary to design, test and implement and manufacture electronic circuits. Where this module is part of a Degree Apprenticeship programme, the knowledge learning outcomes is K1, K2, K3 and K6, the skills learning outcomes are S1, S3 and S6
