一、課程說明(Course Description)

On the basis of microelectronic Circuits I and II, you should now have a good understanding of semiconductor transistors and the related analog circuits. You should be familiar with the operation principles of MOSFETs and BJTs, single-stage and multi-stage amplifiers, frequency response, feedback, and fundamental design of operational amplifiers (OP-Amps). In this class, you need to explore more on these subjects. In addition to book study and hand calculation, extensive hands on works about simulating circuit (HSPICE) and building actual amplifiers (both breadboard and PCB) are required. These will be very useful experiences for EE students especially if you would like to be a top-notch analog IC designer in the future.


二、指定用書(Text Books)

The course content is based on “Microelectronic Circuits” 5th edition by Sedra/Smith. Laboratory handouts for the experiment guidelines and procedures are provided.


三、參考書籍(References)

Laboratory manual for“Microelectronic Circuits” 3rd edition by Sedra/Smith.

四、教學方式(Teaching Method)

There are 1~2 hours of class in room 208 before each lab. Also, one quiz about the experimental materials before each lab. there are 5 labs total.
