- Knowledge about circuit design, layout, PCB, assembly, soldering and testing.

- Overview of components used for electronics construction.

- Know of noise and EMC, and principles to reduce the effect of this in electronic systems.

- Basic knowledge of electrical and mechanical construction for electronic circuits.

Skills

The candidate will be able to:

- Analyze, model and simulate electronic circuits with SPICE.

- Use CAD tools for drawing and layout for circuit design.

- Make PCB and assemble components on it.

- Test and verify a produced electronic circuit design.

General competence

- The candidate shall be able to develop, make and test electronic equipment - from idea to final product.

Learning methods and activities

Lectures. Exercises. Circuit design project.

Further on evaluation

The assessment includes a written final exam (counts 70%) and a project assignment (counts 30%). All parts must be passed. Grade: Letter grade.

In the event of a re-sit examination in August, the examination may be changed to an oral examination. If you do not pass the project assignment, this must be taken again at the next ordinary completion of the course.
