A lecture/laboratory course designed for students who have little or no background experience in electronics but who wish to obtain a working knowledge of electronic devices and techniques. Fundamentals of electricity and basic laws governing voltage and current in circuit elements with direct and alternating current excitation; charge carriers in vacuum and semiconductor materials; the diode and diode circuits; the junction transistor, equivalent circuit at low frequency, the basic amplifier circuit, biasing, and digital electronics. It is expected that students will follow up with E E 702 to achieve a useful level of experience in the application of electronic devices.
A lecture/laboratory course for students whose main interest is in fields other than electrical engineering but have a background knowledge of elementary electric circuits and principles of electronics. Deals with electronic instruments and their application, in measurement, automatic control, computation, and other areas related to the interests of the students.
