Continuation of ECE 652 with emphasis on more advanced circuits including: active filters, Nonlinear electronic circuits: oscillators, function generators, phase-locked loops; clippers and peak detectors; A/D and D/A conversion, switching mode circuits. Laboratory exercises in the design and analysis of active circuits. Further advanced application of laboratory instrumentation to the investigation of active circuit characteristics; computer-aided design, analysis, and testing; development of report writing skills. This course is required of EE majors, but it is not required of CE majors.
