Analog and digital signals are used to transmit information, usually through electric signals. In both these technologies, the information, such as any audio or video, is transformed into electric signals. The difference between analog and digital technologies is that in analog technology, information is translated into electric pulses of varying amplitude. In digital technology, translation of information is into binary format (zero or one) where each bit is representative of two distinct amplitudes.
This course is designed to help students to describe, analyze and design analog and digital electrical circuits and become familiar with the number system conversion, laws of Boolean algebra and Op-Amp characteristics.
After completing this course, students would have gained an intuitive understanding of electronics, they should be able to simulate simple analog circuits and write firmware and use FPGAs and be familiar with basic microelectronics technologies and trends.
