An essential understanding of basic electronic concepts. The topics
concern (i) diodes and diode circuits such as rectifiers, (ii) basic transistor
principles such as biasing, operating point, load line, small signal analysis
and (iii) amplifier's quadrupole presentation bringing into play the input
and output impedances, the transfer function and their interaction.
Coupling theoretical concepts and investigation with exercises and online
lab sessions, the course structure follows the old and very true adage:
"I hear and I forget, I see and I remember, I do and I understand." Well
thought and perfectly clear, with rising difficulty levels, a must-have for
every physics student.
