ELEC-320 - Solid-State Electronics

3 credits

Industrial electronics is changing faster than ever because of the rapid changes in the electronics field. Large discrete solid state electronic devices with an emphasis on solid- state devices as they relate to specific applications are studied. Each device will have associated with it a laboratory exercise in order to provide a better understanding of the material at hand. Some of the topics covered will include diodes, diode applications, transistor switches, field effect transistors, DC biasing, switching circuits, thyristors, and voltage regulators.

Prerequisite(s): ELEC-210, ENG-101 and MATH-232 (which may be taken concurrently).

Corequisite(s): ELEC-320L
