EC100 – Circuit Theory

Today's Engineering graduates are no longer employed solely to work on the technical design

aspects of engineering problems. To contribute to the solution of the engineering problems an

engineer must acquire knowledge of ELECTRIC CIRCUIT ANALYSIS. Emphasis is placed on the

basic circuit concepts, circuit modeling and methods of circuit analysis in time domain and

frequency domain for solving simple and multi dimensional circuits including coupled circuits and

three phase circuits.

Unit I deals with the understanding the concept of circuit elements, lumped circuits,

waveforms, circuit laws and helps to solve the electrical network using mesh and nodal analysis. Unit

II is used to analyze electrical circuits (both AC and DC) using theorems such as Superposition,

thevenin's, Norton's, Maximum power transfer, Compensation, Tellegen's, Millman's and Substitution

theorem.

Unit III explains about the concept of active, reactive and apparent powers, power factor and

resonance in series and parallel circuits. Unit IV is used to know the basic concepts of coupled

circuits, three phase loads and power measurement. Analysis of Transient response of series and

parallel AC circuits and solving problems in time domain using Laplace Transform are to be studied

under Unit V.

EC205 ELECTRONIC CIRCUITS-I

As we have learned already, a transistor must be properly biased in order to operate as an amplifier. DC biasing is used to establish a steady level of transistor currents and voltages called dc operating point or quiescent point (Q-point). In this unit, several types of bias circuits are studied.

18

Page 19: TCE Comprehension

The things learned about transistor biasing in the previous unit are now applied in this unit where bipolar junction transistor (BJT) circuits are used as a small-signal amplifier. The term small-signal refers to the use of signals that take up a relatively small percentage of an amplifier’s operational range. Additionally, we will also learn how to reduce an amplifier to an equivalent dc and ac circuit for easier analysis, and we will learn about multi-stage amplifiers.

The knowledge of FETs in the last unit are carried forward into this unit where FET circuits are used as small-signal amplifiers. Because of their high input impedance and other characteristics, FETs are often preferred over BJTs for certain types of applications. Many of the concepts that relate to amplifiers using BJTs apply as well as to FET amplifiers. The three FET amplifier configurations are common-source, common-gate and common-drain. These are analogous to common-emitter, common-base and common-collector configurations in BJT amplifiers.

In the previous unit on amplifiers, the effects of the input frequency on an amplifiers operation due to capacitive elements in the circuit were neglected in order to focus on other concepts. The coupling and bypass capacitors were considered to be ideal shorts and the internal transistor capacitances were considered to be ideal opens. This treatment is valid in the frequency is in an amplifiers mid range.

As we know capacitive reactance decreases with increasing frequency and vice-versa. When the frequency is low enough, the coupling and bypass capacitors can no longer be considered as shorts because their reactances are large enough to have a significant effect. Also, when the frequency is high enough the internal transistor capacitance can no longer be considered as opens because their reactance because small enough to have significant effect on the amplifier operation. A complete picture of an amplifiers response must take into account the full range of frequencies over which the amplifiers may operate.

A voltage regulator provides a constant dc output voltage that is essentially independent of the input voltage, output load current, and temperature. The voltage regulator is one part of a power supply. Its input voltage comes from the filtered output of a rectifier derived from an ac voltage or from a battery in the case of portable systems.

Most voltage regulators fall into two broad categories linear regulators and switching regulators. In the linear regulated category, two general types are the series regulator and the shunt regulator. These are normally available for either positive or negative output voltages. A dual regulator provides both positive and negative outputs. In the switching regulator category, three general configurations are step-down, step-up and inverting.

Many types of integrated circuit (IC) regulators are available. The most popular types of linear regulator are the three-terminal fixed voltage regulator and the three-terminal adjustable voltage regulator. Switching regulators are also widely used.

signal is a variable signal continuous in both time and amplitude which is generally carried

by use of modulation.

Analog circuits do not involve quantization of information unlike the digital

circuits and consequently have a primary disadvantage of random variation and signal

degradation, particularly resulting in adding noise to the audio or video quality over a

distance.

Data is represented by physical quantities that are added or removed to alter data.

Analog transmission is inexpensive and enables information to be transmitted from point-

to-point or from one point to many. Once the data has arrived at the receiving end, it is

converted back into digital form so that it can be processed by the receiving computer

EC202- ELECTRONIC CIRCUITS II

Page 44: TCE Comprehension

Feedback plays an important role in almost all electronic circuits. It is almost

invariably used in the amplifier to improve its performance and to make it more ideal. In the

process of feedback, a part pf output is sampled and fed back to the input of the amplifier.

Therefore, at input we have two signals: Input signals, and part of the output which is fed

back to the input. Both these signals may be in phase or out of phase. When the input signal

and part of output signal are in phase, the feedback is called positive feedback. On the other

hand, when they are in out of phase, the feedback is called negative feedback.

Oscillators are circuits that generate an output signal without the necessity of an

input signal. They are used as signal sources in all sorts of applications. Different types of

oscillators produce various types of outputs including sine waves, square waves, triangular

waves and saw tooth waves.

To amplify the selective range of frequencies, the resistive load, Rc is replaced by a

tuned circuit is capable of amplifying a signal over the narrow band of frequencies centered

at fr. The amplifiers with such a tuned circuits as a load are known as tuned amplifier.

The electronic circuits which are used to generate nonsinusoidal waveforms are

called multivibrators. The multivibrators is nothing but a two stage amplifier, operating in

two modes. The overall operation of the multivibrator is based on the fact that no tow active

devices have exactly identical characteristics.

A special type of wave generator which is used to produce a single narrow pulse or

train of pulses is called a blocking oscillator. The two important elements of a blocking

oscillator are an active device like transistor and a pulse transformer. A pulse transformer is

used to couple output of the transistor back to the input. These circuits are used in frequency

dividers, Counters circuits and for switching the other circuits on and off at the specific

times.

EC206 - Transmission Lines and Waveguides

A transmission line is a device designed to guide electrical energy from one point to

Page 55: TCE Comprehension

another. It is used, for example, to transfer the output RF energy of a transmitter to an

antenna. Use of the Smith Chart utility has grown steadily over the years and it is still

widely used today, not only as a problem solving aid, but as a graphical demonstrator of

how many RF parameters behave at one or more frequencies, an alternative to using tabular

information. The Smith Chart can be used to represent many parameters including

impedances, admittances, and reflection coefficients and scattering parameters, wavelength

approaches the cross-sectional dimensions of the waveguide. Below such frequencies,

waveguides are useless as electrical transmission lines. At short wavelengths there exist

other modes of propagation that are not as "lossy," if a conductive tube is used rather than

two parallel conductors. It is at these high frequencies that waveguides become practical.

This course has established Maxwell's equations from experimentally deduced laws.

The equations are completely general, and are consistent with Special Relativity. We

predicted from these equations, based on low-frequency results, that electric and magnetic

fields could propagate as electromagnetic radiation, at any frequency, even e.g., 1020 hz, at

the speed of light, c, which is a constant in a vacuum. We have also found how to guide such

waves, down transmission lines and waveguides.

ET352 – Computer Architecture and Microcontroller

Computer Architecture refers to those attributes of a system visible to a programmer, or, put another way, those attributes that have a direct impact on the logical execution of a

Page 87: TCE Comprehension

program. Computer organization refers to the operational units and their interconnections that realize the architectural specifications. Examples of the architectural attributes include the instruction set, the number of bits used to represents various data types (Example numbers, characters), I/O mechanisms and techniques for addressing memory. Organizational attributes include those hardware details transparent to the programmer, such as control signals, interfaces between the computers and peripherals, and the memory technology used.

At a top level, a computer consists of CPU, memory and I/O components, with one or more modules of each type. These components are interconnected in some fashions to achieve the basic functions of the computer, which is to execute the programs. Thus, at a top level, we can describe the computer systems by (1) by describing the external behavior of each component- ie, the data and control signals that it exchanges with other components; and (2) describing the interconnection structure.

The simple instruction set of a RISC lends itself to efficient pipelining because there are fewer and more predictable operations performed per instructions. A RISC instruction set architecture also lends itself to the delayed branch techniques, in which branch instructions are rearranged with other instructions to improve pipelining efficiency. The key characteristics of a RISC machines: (1) A limited instruction set with a fixed format,(2) A large number of registers are the use of the compiler that optimizes registers usage and (3) an emphasis on optimizing the instruction pipeline.

Computer organization must be designed to implement a particular architectural specification, a thorough treatment of a organization require the detailed examination of architecture as well.

The 8051 is an 8-bit microprocessor originally designed in the 1980's by Intel that has gained great popularity since its introduction. Its standard form includes several standard on-chip peripherals, including timers, counters, and UART's, plus 4Kbytes of on-chip program memory and 128 bytes of data memory, making single-chip implementations possible. Its hundreds of derivatives, manufactured by several different companies (like Philips) include even more on-chip peripherals. Costing only a few dollars per IC, the 8051 is estimated to be used in a large percentage all embedded system products.

The 809x/839x/879x ICs are a members of the Intel MCS-96 family. In MCS-96 family 8095 was the first member. Later the 8096, 8097 and 8395were added. They are used embedded systems like hard disk drives, modems, printers, pattern recognition and motor control. Having High speed input and output enables them to be used in Digital Storage Oscilloscope.

ET304 - INFORMATION THEORY

The purpose of a communication system is the transmission of information from one

point to another with high efficiency and reliability. Information sources can be classified

into tow categories: analog and discrete. Analog information sources such as a microphone

actuated by a voice signal emit continuous amplitude. Continuous time electrical waveform.

Page 97: TCE Comprehension

The output of a discrete information source such as teletype consists of sequence of letters or

symbols. Analog information sources can be transformed into discrete information sources

through the process of sampling & quantizing.

A discrete information source consists of a discrete set of letters or alphabets of

symbols. In general, any message emitted by the source consists of a string or sequence of

symbols. The symbols in the string or sequence are emitted at discrete moments, usually at a

fixed time rate and each symbol emitted is chosen from the source alphabet.

Every message coming out of the source contains some information, but some

messages convey more information than others, Information theory provides a quantitative

measure of the information contained in message signals and allows us to determine the

capacity of a communication system to transfer this information form source to destination.

Through the use of coding redundancy can be reduced from message signals so that

channels can be used with improved efficiency. In addition systematic redundancy can be

introduced to the transmitted signal so that channels can be used with improved reliability.

ET354 – Introduction to VLSI Design

VLSI stands for “Very Large Scale Integration”. This is the field which involves

packing more and more logic devices into smaller and smaller areas. Digital VLSI circuits

are predominantly CMOS based. The way normal blocks like latches and gates are

implemented is different from what students have seen so far, but the behaviour remains the

Page 102: TCE Comprehension

same. All the minuaturisation involves new things to consider. A lot of thought has to go

into actual implementation as well as design.

All modern digital designs start with a designer writing hardware description of the

IC (using HDL or Hardware Description Language) in Verilog / VHDL. A verilog or VHDL

program essentially describes the hardware (logic gates, Flip-Flops, counters etc) and the

interconnect of the circuit blocks and the functionality. Various CAD tools are available to

synthesize a circuit based on the HDL. The most widely used synthesis tools come from two

CAD companies. Synopsys and Cadence.

ASIC design methodology, use of ASCI design CAD tools, and testing methodology

will be introduced. An introduction to logic synthesis, styles of synthesis, and the purpose

and nature of power / area / speed constraints will be given. As an introduction to VLSI

testing, fault models, design for testability techniques, scan path, JTAG, and Built-in-self-

test methods will be incorporated. The course is designed to teach students about Higher

Methodology for VLSI Design.

ET308 – SATELLITE COMMUNICATION

A Communications satellite (sometimes abbreviated to comsat) is an artificial

satellite stationed in space for the purposes of telecommunications. Modern communications

satellites use a variety of orbits including geostationary orbits, Molniya orbits, other

elliptical orbits and low (polar and non-polar) Earth orbits.

For fixed (point-to-point) services, communications satellites provide a technology

complementary to that of fiber optic submarine communication cables. They are also used

for mobile applications such as communications to ships, vehicles, planes and hand-held

Page 117: TCE Comprehension

terminals, and for TV and radio broadcasting, for which application of other technologies,

such as cable, is impractical or impossible.

A satellite in a geostationary orbit appears to be in a fixed position to an earth-

based observer. A geostationary satellite revolves around the earth at a constant speed once

per day over the equator.

The geostationary orbit is useful for communications applications because ground

based antennas, which must be directed toward the satellite, can operate effectively without

the need for expensive equipment to track the satellite’s motion. Especially for applications

that require a large number of ground antennas (such as direct TV distribution), the savings

in ground equipment can more than justify the extra cost and onboard complexity of lifting a

satellite into the relatively high geostationary orbit.

ET455 – Broadband CommunicationIntegrated services and Digital Networks

The objective of this course is to provide the technological survey of the protocols

and architecture of ISDN and B-ISDN. The ISDN and B-ISDN have had a dramatic impact

on the planning and deployment of intelligent digital networks providing integrated services

for voice, data, and video. One part deals with the fundamental technologies used in digital

Page 137: TCE Comprehension

transmission technology and a review of switching. Further the ISDN and B-ISDN standards

had led to the development of two major new networking technologies of frame relay and

Asynchronous transfer mode (ATM). Frame relay and ATM have become the essential

ingredients in developing high speed networks for local, metro politian and wider area

applications. And also it examines the critical issues of congestion control in frame relay

networks. Both the standardization of ISDN and B-ISDN and development of frame relay

and ATM have been driven by market pressures to reduce the cost of voice and data

transmission and to expand networking services to provide high speed data and video

capability. Government use of computer systems will become more efficient. The

government is the most prodigious producer and user of information in our society. ISDN

will improve and disperse access and help to remove in compatibilities between different

systems so that more can be done with less effort.
