Course detail
Theory of Electronic Circuits
FEKT-GTEOAcad. year: 2019/2020
Students become familiar with principles and application of basic matrix methods (based on Kirchhoff´s equations, method of the current loops, method of the nodal voltages) and its modifications (linear transformations, method of disabled row, method of stamps). Further, important questions involving noise, sensitivity and tolerance analysis of the electronic circuits will be addressed as well as design of the passive ladder structures. Finally, the problems with feedback loops and system stability, oscillation conditions and methods for solving the nonlinear electronic networks will be solved.
