Bucknell University Course Catalog Description"Basic amplifier properties, differential amplifiers, frequency response, fundamentals of power electronics, and practical aspects of electronic circuit design." Detailed DescriptionThis course comprises the optional second half of a year-long study of basic semiconductor electronic devices (diodes, MOSFETs, and BJTs) begun in ECEG 350. The use of these devices in practical electronic circuits is investigated. More advanced topics such as differential amplifiers and frequency response are covered as well. If time permits, some aspects of power electronics are explored. The circuits covered in this course find use in many of the electronic devices employed in the modern world, including personal entertainment and wireless communication devices, robot control systems, and power switching and management systems. Many classical electronic circuits and important design techniques are introduced. PrerequisiteECEG 350 is the prerequisite for this course. Other courses or previous experience may be substituted for the prerequisite course with permission of the instructor. Class MeetingsThe lecture portion of this course is scheduled to meet 3:00–3:50 pm Monday, Wednesday, and Friday in ACET 225, and the lab section is scheduled to meet 8:00–9:50 am Thursday in Dana 307. Course OutcomesA student who successfully completes this course should be able to:
