This course aims to provide basic knowledge on analog and digital electronic circuits from a circuit and monolithic (integrated circuit) implementation point of view. The course includes the design of elements in bipolar- and CMOS-based op amps, feedback, power supplies, linear and non-linear applications circuits with the op amp as the basic building block, and transistor circuits for realising basic digital circuits. It will provide Year 3 electrical and electronic undergraduates with sufficient fundamental theoretical and practical knowledge to pursue advanced topics in analog and digital integrated circuits.
Contents: Feedback amplifier. Voltage reference and current sources. Operational amplifier circuits. Applications of operational amplifiers. Power supplies. CMOS logic circuits. CMOS flip-flops and memories.

First half of the course consists of recorded LAMS lectures and focuses more on digital electronics.
Second half of of the course consists of weekly in person lectures and focuses on analog electronics.Both halves help to build a strong understanding of transistor based circuits.
Comparatively, has a small class size opposed to other EEE modules.
Do not miss out on tutorials as the professors are super passionate and feed the students with interesting and relevant tidbits on electronics.Grades are dependent on 2x 10% tests, 1x 10% lab, 1x 10% home assignment (online) and 1x 60% finals.
Take if your DE and AE are strong, or if you found them enjoyable.

This course builds upon what you learn in Analog Electronics, with a strong focus on MOSFET over BJT. It aims to enable you to analyse multi-transistor circuits quickly and goes into a wide variety of real-world applications! The Profs are passionate about the topic and share their industry experience throughout the lectures too. The class size is pretty small so I don’t think there’s a bell curve to it.
