Handouts

  1. Required course material
  2. Additional material
  3. Lecture #1 Handout
  4. Lecture #2 Handout
  5. Lecture #3 Handout
  6. Lecture #4 Handout
  7. Lecture #5: Review of the standard of electronic symbols- Demo of schematic drawing using tools available at http://www.circuit-diagram.org/  and  http://www.dz863.com/   (other software packages are available such as TinyCAD https://sourceforge.net/projects/tinycad/ ). Your homework is to draw a few OP AMP application circuits from your analog electronics textbook using these tools. Also, you should go through the standard of electronic symbols and be prepared to use it to identify a component in any given circuit. Focus should be on components that were discussed in the earlier lectures.
