Course Description: This course aims to teach analysis and design of differential amplifiers, power amplifiers, op-amp and feedback circuits.
Course Objectives: The objective of this course is to introduce the students to the advanced concepts of electronics. The primary objective of this course is to understand and implement the advanced electronic circuits such as amplifiers with the help of theoretical and practical problem solving. At the end of the course, student should be able to analyze the analog electronic circuit which in turn are used as the building blocks of the larger and more complex systems.
