This course aims for providing the students, who may have no practical knowledge of electrical circuits, with the basics of analog and digital electronics through hands-on experience.

Basic Electronics

Analysis, especially complex numbers.

Instruction manual in text materials or a pdf file will be provided at the class.

A student builds the following electrical circuits on the solderless breadboard. He or she then measures and analyzes various properties. The experiments are carried out every other week, and classroom discussion is held online in between.

1) Guidance.
2) Measurement of resistance.
3) Classroom discussion.
4) Measurement of complex impedance for C and L.
5) Classroom discussion.
6) Resonant behavior of LC-circuits.
7) Classroom discussion.
8) Transmit radio signals and receive them using LC-circuits.
9) Classroom discussion.
10) Transistor and LED.
11) Classroom discussion.
12) Operation amplifier and its applications.(transmit and receive sound signal using LEDs).
13) Classroom discussion.
14) Logic gates.
15) Classroom discussion.

Please study on the basic technical terms of the IC you will work on each week.

Students should be able to build the actual circuits to understand and explain the principle of operation.
It is mandatory to attend and finish all the projects and all reports must be submitted for each one listed above in order to acquire the credit. The score rate is 80%, where the attitude toward the experiment is also taken into account. The student must submit a report on the project within a week, which is subject to either quick, oral examination with the lecturer or open discussion in which every student is to participate. This post-laboratory step will be assessed at a rate of 15%. The pre-laboratory test will also be assessed (5%).

Electronic circuits are fun to play with.

The course has originally been designed for JUSST students, but regular students can take it.
