Teaching Methodologies
The teaching methodology below is based on the presentation of the main concepts involved, followed by practical work on the application of the concepts presented, which includes carrying out laboratory activities.
Learning Results
This UC aims to provide students with basic skills in analysis, understanding and design of modern electronic circuits. Students who complete this course successfully must be able to analyze and dimension simple electronic circuits based on semiconductors. They must also develop basic skills to understand more complex modern circuits.
