What you will study
- Course overview and aims
- The aims of the course are to present the techniques used in the analysis of analogue circuits and to apply them to a spectrum of different uses.
- Keyword syllabus
- Revision on Transistor Circuits Modeling BJT/MOSFET typical operations, Input/output characteristics, single-stage amplifier; biasing/quiescent and AC small-signal conditions; common-emitter/source (BJT/MOSFET) amplifier; small-signal model; input and output impedances; voltage gain. Emitter/source follower and output stage, multistage amplifier Analogue Building Blocks Differential amplifiers: reject noise, current mirrors: current source, active load. Output stage/power amplifier: class A, class B and class AB power amps.. Operational Amplifier Revision on ideal op-amp circuit analysis, special functions of op-amps, non-ideal op-amps, slew rate, bandwidth Frequency Response of Amplifiers Low frequency response: coupling and bypass capacitors; high-frequency response: parasitic capacitors and Miller effect; band-limiting and 3dB roll-off frequency. Use of Bode plots. Feedback Amplifiers Two-Port network: Impedance parameters, admittance parameters, hybrid parameters, transmission parameters. Ideal feedback amplifiers: gain stability, signal-to-noise ratio, effects on gain and bandwidth. Types of feedback amplifiers; loading effects. Practical feedback amplifiers: voltage amplifier, transadmittance amplifier, transimpedance amplifier, current amplifier, prediction of stability, frequency response. Small-signal Analysis Small-signal model for BJT & MOS single transistor amplifiers; Small-signal model for differential amplifiers; AC gain; Input Impedance; Output impedance Laboratory/Mini-project Experiment: Students will form groups with size 3-5 to achieve a mini-project with progressing complexity. They need to apply problem solving skills with the concepts learnt to fulfill the given goal through team work.
