Course detail
Electronic Practice
FEKT-BPC-ELPAcad. year: 2023/2024
The course provides students with training of skills and proper routines in experimental work at electronic laboratories. The right choice of suitable instruments for a certain measurement and current check of measured data in comparison to expected results are stressed. Not only basic applications, but also advanced tasks are demonstrated and trained. Computer classes make students familiar with computer-aided design and analysis of electronic circuits using OrCAD-PSpice simulator and Eagle PCB design software. Students assemble simple electronic circuits on contactless boards and/or on their own designed PCBs and then immediately compare the results of the computer-aided simulation with the experiment.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
All the laboratory and computer classes are compulsory, participation is checked. The lessons missed due to serious reasons can be substituted only in the dates determined by the supervisor and after the supervisor’s agreement (preferably during the current semester, exceptionally in its last week).
Aims
The students who successfully completed the course are able to: (1) work with a basic equipment of electronic laboratories (dc source, functional generator, multimeter, oscilloscope), (2) choose a suitable instrument for a certain measurement (measuring function, range, frequency, accuracy), (3) compare the measured results with preliminary assumption, (4) measure in decibels, (5) simulate behaviour of simple electronic circuits using PSpice, (6) design a simple PCB using Eagle, (7) build up and test a simple electronic circuit on a contactless board, (8) build up and test a circuit on a PCB.
