Courses Structured Electronic Design - 1#
Summary#
BSc-level 9-day introduction to structured electronic design. This course discusses the theory and the application of basic structured design techniques to the design of application-specific amplifiers with operational amplifiers, such as:
General-purpose low-noise, wide-band pre-amplifiers
Photo diode amplifiers
PSD amplifiers
High-performance audio pre-amplifiers
Active antennas
Low-noise buffers and level shifts
Sensor signal conditioning amplifiers
Charge amplifiers
ADC pre-amplifiers
DAC output amplifiers
etc.
Intended for#
Designers with at least BSc in physics or electrical engineering:
Interested in structured design of analog electronics
Interested in the design of application-specific amplifiers
Designing signal-conditioning electronics in embedded systems
Designing analog integrated circuits
Course material#
Free PDF course book Structured Electronics Design - 3rd edition
SLiCAP: a free Python based SYMBOLIC SPICE simulator for deriving and solving design equations.
Educational method#
At the beginning of the course, the application specification of an amplifier to be designed will be presented.
Step-by-step design of this amplifier will be discussed during the course.
Motivation of the design steps, their underlying theory and application to other designs will be elucidated.
Examples and exercises will help the participants to understand the design steps and their interaction.
At the end of the course, participants will receive an individual design assignment and present the results and the way in which they have been obtained.
