Electronics

Course summary

The course aims to enable you to gain an understanding of the principles of modern electronics and to become competent in the design and analysis of electronic circuits. Theory and calculations are central to the course but a large amount of the work is practically based and experimental project work forms part of the assessment. Among the topics you will cover are: Circuit and logic principles, sequential logic, amplifying circuits, timing circuits, transducers, digital/analogue converters, memory systems, information transfer and radio circuits, digital and mobile communications, optoelectronics, microprocessor systems, filters and interfacing.
