Objectives
THE COURSE IS DIVIDED INTO TWO MODULES AND PROVIDES AND INTRODUCTION TO THEORY AND PRACTICE OF ANALOG (MODULE 1) AND DIGITAL (MODULE 2) ELECTRONICS. IT GIVES AN INTRODUCTION TO THE PHYSICS OF SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES AND TEACHES THE USE OF LABORATORY INSTRUMENTATION FOR THE REALIZATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SIMPLE ACTIVE CIRCUITS.

KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
THE COURSE AIMS TO PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH THEORETICAL AND PRACTICAL KNOWLEDGE ABOUT ANALOG AND DIGITAL ELECTRONICS, FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF DEVICE PHYSICS AND TECHNOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS. THE COURSE BUILDS ON THE SKILLS ACQUIRED IN PREVIOUS COURSES, ESPECIALLY IN ELECTROMAGNETICS AND CIRCUIT THEORY.

APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
STUDENTS WILL BE ABLE TO DESIGN AND IMPLEMENT SIMPLE DIGITAL AND ANALOG ELECTRONIC CIRCUITS AND USE ADVANCED INSTRUMENTATION FOR THE MEASUREMENT OF ELECTRICAL QUANTITIES.
Prerequisites
ADEQUATE KNOWLEDGE OF GENERAL PHYSICS AND,MORE SPECIFICALLY, OF ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS.

Teaching Methods
LECTURES ON THEORETICAL ASPECTS OF THE COURSE. (7CFU)
LABORATORY EXERCISES ORIENTED TO THE FABRICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SIMPLE ELECTRONIC CIRCUITS. (5CFU)

PRESENCE AT THE LECTURES IN NOT COMPULSORY, WHILE IT IS REQUESTED TO PARTICIPATE TO AT LEAST 2/3 OF THE LABORATORY EXERCISES.
Verification of learning
TO PASS THE EXAM THE STUDENT MUST PERFORM AT LEAST 2/3 OF THE LABORATORY EXPERIMENTS AND PRODUCE THE TECHNICAL REPORTS.
THE EXAM IS IN ORAL FORM IN WHICH THE STUDENT
- EXPLAINS THE WORK DONE IN THE LABORATORY,
- ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS REGARDING THE SUBJECTS OF THE LECTURES

THE MARK WILL DEPEND ON THE OVERALL EVALUATION OF THE EXPERIMENT REPORTS AND ON THE QUALITY AND COMPLETENESS OF THE ORAL REPORT.
