EE 3200 - Electronics I

Prerequisite(s): EE 3100 or concurrent registration.
Introduction to two- and three-terminal semiconductor devices including: junction diodes, bipolar junction transistors and field-effect transistors. DC analysis of transistor circuits to establish quiescent conditions using analytical and graphical methods. Lumped element models of transistors for small-signal amplifier analysis. Small signal and power amplifier design, temperature and tolerance effects. SPICE based circuit simulators, such as NI Multisim, are used to obtain the DC bias, steady-state behavior and frequency response of transistor amplifiers. Credit(s): 3 (3 plus 0)
