Analogue Electronics (Project) 4 (U04028)

? Credit Points : 20 ? SCQF Level : 10 ? Acronym : EEL-4-ELAV

The aim of this module is to give students more hands-on experience of analogue design. It is a half-way house between discrete component design and fully custom integrated circuit design. Working with real hardware, the only way to learn about real analogue problems, will not be easy, and the practical work is likely to be very testing. However, exposure to the real problems that will be presented by using the custom chip designed specifically for this course will take the students? understanding of analogue work to a new level.
