    Description of course

    1. Discrete Electronic Circuits


    Aims
    To introduce the principles of circuit design using discrete transistors.
    Objectives
    Understanding how transistors produce amplification. Why biasing is necessary. The
    distinction between large-signal and small-signal performance. Analysis and exploration of a
    range of typical circuit configurations. The factors affecting the frequency response of circuits.
    How a conventional operational amplifier is structured. Open and closed loop analysis of
    circuits including oscillators. The behaviour of MOS switching circuits.
    Knowledge
    The hybrid-pi model of field effect transistors. How to calculate circuit performance. Simple
    single-transistor amplifier stages. The properties of Class A, B and AB amplifiers. The
    differential amplifier. Active voltage and current biasing circuits. Design of oscillators.
    Application of MOSFET as a simple switch and as a logic gate.
    Skills
    Ability to analyse and design transistor amplifier circuits, including their input and output
    resistances, frequency response and dynamic behaviour. Analysis of DC coupled multi-stage
    transistor circuits. Analysis and design of MOS and CMOS logic gates.
    Syllabus
    MOSET amplifiers: large and small signal models. Simple biasing arrangements.
    Performance of common-source and source-follower circuits: voltage and current gain,
    frequency response, Miller effect.
    Analysis and design of DC coupled circuits. Advanced bias circuits - current mirror and
    cascoding. The differential amplifier and its contribution to the op-amp. Complete op-amp
    circuit. Common mode rejection ratio and effect of improved design. Sources of non-
    linearity in amplifiers and impact on design. Oscillator theory and design.
    Power amplifiers: Class A, B, and AB amplifiers and their application in op-amp, rf and audio
    systems.
    MOSFETs: I-V characteristics. Hybrid-pi model. MOSFET switching circuits.
