Outcome Coverage:
a. Apply math, science and engineering
The course is in the analysis and applications of analog IC where there is a need for extensive mathematics and basics of electronics to study sophisticated circuits as in the internal circuit of op-amp, OTA, Multipliers or in their applications as well as in DAC and ADC , PLL or waveform generations.
b. An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data.
The lab work is in separate course.
c. An ability to design a system, component, or process to meet the desired needs
Identification of design problems is practiced in different engineering application as in reduction of number of system components for certain filter or MV circuits and others.
d- An ability to function on multi-disciplinary teams
In the lab course the students usually work in teams. Also there are H.W assignments where are the students are expected to discuss the problems in groups.
e) Identify, formulate and solve engineering problems
The class includes various engineering applications as application of PLL to control the speed of a motor or a communication problem where the students are expected to optimize conflicting parameters in stability, B.W and lock-in rang of the system.
g. An ability to communicate effectively
The course is in advance electronic circuits so the students are encouraged to share in the oral discussion in how to handle certain problem where there is a need for math, basics of electronics, circuits and other EE subjects.
h. The impact of engineering solutions in a global and societal context.
The course is in IC electronics where we address the impact of such technology in our life as in communication, medicine, security, military etc which affects our social and economical habits.
i. Recognition of the need for and an ability to engage in life- long learning
The course is in advance electronics circuits and their applications. The students understand how this field is continually changing which ease its wide use in different applications. The students know the basics of engineering and sciences needed for the subject that makes them able to follow any changes or improvement in the field
