Class Electronics

Provide the student with the knowledge necessary to understand the fundamental elements of semiconductor electronics. Study of the basic circuits of electronics: circuits with diodes (rectifiers, limiters, peak detector, fasteners, voltage multipliers, voltage regulators, etc.); circuits with the bipolar junction transistor (amplifiers, switching circuits, current sources, etc.); circuits with operational amplifiers (inverter and / or non-inverter amplifier, summing amplifier, difference amplifier, integrating amplifier and differentiating amplifier).

The teaching methodology is based on the theoretical, exercises and laboratory work aspects. In order to stimulate students in the study and deepening of the subjects taught, a few hours of contact were transferred to carry out individual work supported in a tutorial follow-up.
