CODE 72531 ACADEMIC YEAR 2023/2024 CREDITS 6 cfu anno 3 INGEGNERIA ELETTRONICA E TECNOLOGIE DELL'INFORMAZIONE 9273 (L-8) - GENOVA SCIENTIFIC DISCIPLINARY SECTOR ING-INF/01 LANGUAGE Italian TEACHING LOCATION GENOVA SEMESTER 1° Semester MODULES Questo insegnamento è un modulo di: ELECTRONIC EMBEDDED SYSTEMS TEACHING MATERIALS AULAWEB OVERVIEW This module provides the theoretical and experimental basis for understanding, analyzing and designing electronic circuits and electronic systems that make use of bipolar, field-effect transistors, and operational amplifiers. Moreover, experimental aspects will be addressed by lab sessions in which simple circuits will be simulated, assembled and tested. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES Providing the necessary elements to tackle the problems related with the design and testing of electronic devices and circuits Comprehend the different issues related to the development of electronic circuits including circuit design, implementation methodologies and lab testing, Develop simple projects starting from given specifications. AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES The module aims to provide the student with the knowledge and operational skills necessary to address problems related to the study, design and testing of simple electronic systems with particular attention to analog ones. The student will be able to: 1. Understand the methods of analysis, design, development and experimental verification of electronic circuits. 2. Develop hardware projects starting from assigned specifications, build them, verify their functionality and performance in the laboratory and, finally, draw up the related documentation. PREREQUISITES It is advisable to have taken the exams in Circuit Theory and Electronics. TEACHING METHODS Classroom lectures Laboratory sessions: creation of sample circuits in groups (preferably with two students) drafting a summary report (to be assessed during the exam). SYLLABUS/CONTENT The module program will be divided into the following main topics: Real operational amplifiers: static and dynamic characteristics and related parameters. Use of operational amplifiers in linear and non-linear circuits. Waveform generators. A/D and D/A converters. Static and dynamic electrical characteristics of CMOS and TTL logic gates and analysis of their operation. Introduction to voltage regulators. Since Electronics constitutes the main "discipline" on which the development of information technologies (ICT) in recent decades and will be so for the future has been based, training expert electronic engineers will allow society to possess the necessary knowledge to the application of these technologies to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals of the UN 2030 Agenda. As an example, we can mention the development of advanced and low-cost systems for: monitoring of climate, crops, breeding, food distribution chains. (Ob. 2.4) road monitoring, vehicular active safety systems, assisted driving systems, etc. (Ob. 3.6) diagnostics (MRI, US, RX, etc.), therapy (e.g. electroceutics), prosthetics and rehabilitation (Ob. 3.d) environmental monitoring to facilitate the mitigation of risks associated with natural phenomena (floods, fires, etc.) (Ob. 13.1) RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY Lecture notes provided by the teacher.
