Teaching Method

Outline:

We will explain the basics of analogue electronic circuits using active elements such as diodes, transistors, field effect transistors (FET), and operation amplifiers.

Style:

Classes will be held in a lecture style, mainly by explaining content following the textbook. Students will work on exercises and design assignments as appropriate.

Notice:

Students are required to learn in an active manner so they can design circuits themselves. If possible, they should construct the circuit they designed and study its operation.
Students who miss 1/3 or more of classes will not be eligible for a passing grade.
