Fall 2020 Trine Course Catalog

ECE 233 Discrete Electronics

This is a first course in semiconductor electronics with emphasis on electronic circuits and devices for low-voltage control, signal conditioning, and switching. Students will: explain the basic operation of junction diodes, BJT's, and FET's, including major limitations; analyze the operation of circuits using practical device models; use SPICE-based software as both an analysis and design tool for electronic circuits; design practical circuits using these devices Corequisite: ECE 231; Prerequisite: ECE 213
