Course Objectives
The course is aimed to the study and comprehension of some analog electronic blocks. It is the second course on the same argument (first part, course name: Elettronica I). Students should learn basic analog blocks as operational amplifiers and current-conveyors, positive and negative feedback, square wave generators, etc.
Course Content
- Analog and digital electronics. Voltage and current AC and DC low and high signals. Amplification and impedances . Positive and negative feedback
- Electronic components : diodes, transistors, amplifiers (equivalent models , biasing)
- Photodiodes and applications, biasing circuits
- Voltage generators (power supplies, stabilizers), current mirrors
- Amplifier circuits: Amplifiers 1 input-1 output . Differential amplifiers : basic scheme, active load. Transconductance amplifiers (OTAs ). Output stages and classes of amplifiers
- The voltage approach. Operational amplifier . Basic concepts. Internal schemes of the MC 1435 and LF411 UA741 . Inverting configuration (I) , the non-inverting (NI), integrator and differentiator I and NI , differential, instrumentation , adder, IV and VI converter with floating load and mass selective amplifier , bootstrap , logarithmic and exponential amplifier, phase shifters , clipper , clamper , rectifiers, absolute value meter, peak detector , sampling and holding circuit , active filters , RT converters for sensing applications , impedance simulators , analog comparator with and without hysteresis, astable, Wien bridge and phase-shifted oscillators, high- frequency oscillators.
- 7. The current approach. First and second generation current- conveyors: Functionality. Example of internal scheme . Parasitic components . Parallelism with the MOSFET . Comparison with the operational amplifier . Applications: amplifier, integrator , differentiator, adder . The AD844 component.
