ELET 3113. Network Analysis. (3) Prerequisites: ELET 1212 and ELET 1212L with grades of C or above, ETGR 2272, or MATH 1242, and Junior standing. Co-requisite: ETGR 2272 or MATH 1242. An introduction to frequency domain analysis through Laplace Transforms and Fourier Analysis. Topics include: a review of circuit analysis fundamentals in the time domain, circuit transformations, waveform analysis and synthesis and first order natural and forced response with extensive utilization of circuit simulation software.
ELET 3222. Electronics II. (3) Prerequisites: ELET 2121 and ELET 2121L with a grade of C or above and Junior standing in department. A continuation of the study of solid state devices begun in ELET 2121. Topics include: frequency response of single and multistage amplifiers, feedback and stability, linear and nonlinear operational amplifier circuits, and CMOS and BiCMOS circuits with extensive utilization of circuit simulation software. Meets for three (3) lecture hours per week. (Spring) (Online)
ELET 3222L. Electronics II Laboratory. (1) (W) Prerequisites: ELET 2121 and ELET 2121L with a grade of C or above and Junior standing in department. Co-requisite: ELET 3222 or permission of the department. This laboratory course supports concepts and practices covered in ELET 3222. Meets for three (3) laboratory hours per week. (Spring, Summer)
ELET 3292. Junior Practicum II. (1) Prerequisites: ELET 3113, ELET 3132, ELET 3132L, and ELET 3191. A continuation of ELET 3191, where students develop requirements and capabilities for open-ended projects encompassing more advanced topics in Engineering Technology. Extensive project planning and a formal design review for selected project(s) are required.
ELET 4123. Active Filters. (3) Prerequisites: ELET 3113, ELET 3222, ETGR 2122 and ETGR 2272 or MATH 1242. The design, analysis, simulation and implementation of composite, cascaded and summation filters. Topics include: bilinear transfer functions; cascade design with first-order circuits; biquad circuits; Butterworth lowpass circuits; Butterworth bandpass circuits; the Chebyshev response; sensitivity; frequency transformations; highpass and band-elimination filters.
ETGR 4100. Capstone Design Project I. (2) (O, W) Prerequisites: All Freshman-, Sophomore-, and Junior-level technical courses. Mechanical ET Pre- or co-requisite: ETME 4163 and ETME 4244. First of a two-semester course sequence in which student teams implement a Senior-level design project which demonstrates abilities as developed by the coursework taken thus far. Project planning techniques are utilized to make substantial progress toward implementation of a design solution. One class hour and three lab hours per week.
ETGR 4200. Capstone Design Project II. (2) (O, W) Prerequisite: ETGR 4100. Second of a two-semester course sequence in which student teams continue to implement a Senior-level design project which demonstrates abilities as developed by the coursework taken thus far. The design solution developed in the first semester is completed and evaluated during the second semester. The primary engineering results delivered is a set of rational decisions, where the rationality of those decisions are supported by the appropriate analysis and testing. The quality of the design is usually reflected in a prototype of either the hardware or software system. One class hour and three lab hours per week.
