Course Description: Lecture, 3 hrs. This course
is an introduction to electronics covering the basics of analog and digital
electronics. Review of Kirchof's
laws, Thevenin's and Norton's theorems. Electronic circuits modeling and
analysis, diodes, transistors, filters, operational amplifiers, single- and
multi-stage amplifiers. The course has a related laboratory component under
ES231. Please refer to the ES 231
course description.

Course Survey
Textbook: Microelectronic Circuits by Sedra and Smith, 5th ed.,
References: See the bibliography (Appendix F) in the textbook
Course Slides & Preparation: We will go through the course slides (See the table below) in
the class. I urge you to download
& review the slides before each class.
If you can, make a paper copy and bring it to class to add your
notes. You are required to read the
textbook after each class for further reinforcement & solve the homework
problems. The text includes
many examples and exercises with answers in each chapter. Go through the examples and solve the
exercises before you solve the homework problems.
Attendance:
Attendance is mandatory. There will be no excused absences except
in the case of emergencies that could be substantiated. Any absence can affect your learning and
your grade.
Class Participation: You are highly encouraged
to participate in the class by asking questions based on the reading or
perspectives you would like to raise in the class.
Homework:
·
Homework will be assigned weekly.
See the tentative list of activities below.
·
Your solutions & answers must be turned in no later than the beginning of the class on the specified date.
·
Be concise,
neat, & organized. There will
be points for your presentation.
·
All work must be
submitted (preferred electronically) or on 8.5 X11 papers.
·
For electronic submission of your solutions, use Microsoft Word, Excel,
Powerpoint, or text & attach it to your email to ali.kujoory@ieee.org.
·
Tables and
graphs in the homework submissions must be presented neatly properly labeled
and must be clearly explained. Use of software (Mathcad, Excel is strongly
encouraged).
·
Failing any of
the above, a submission may not be accepted resulting in the loss of grade in
that assignment.

Deadlines
to drop the course:
·
Please refer to
the university calendar (http://www.sonoma.edu/ar/calendars/index.shtml)
for drop with W, etc.
My Expectations:
·
Always come to
class prepared & on-time to learn
·
Whenever for
some critical reason you cannot attend, send me an email in advance
·
Read the slides before
each lecture and the related chapter after the lecture
– Also, reading the references deepens your
understanding as a student
·
Hand in your
assignments on-time
·
Ask questions
when you have them & contribute when you can
·
Have fun &
look back on this as a positive & worthwhile course for your study
& career development
