Course Objectives		This course aims to give the following abilities to the students: 1) Conduction mechanism in solid materials, 2) Transistor models and biasing, 3) Calculation methodologies of the gain, input, and output resistances of BJT and MOSFET amplifiers 4) Discussion and analysis of basic analog amplifier stages
Course Description		Fundamentals of Electronics course covers structure and operating principles of electronic components. First part of the course focuses on Fundamentals of solid-state physics, properties of semiconductor materials, current carriers, drift and diffusion mechanisms. Second part of the course focuses on the diode. Structure of the pn-junction diode, diode models used in circuit analysis, diode circuits and different diode types are covered. Third part of the lecture focuses on transistors. Different transistor types, their behavior, secondary effects, and transistor circuits are covered. Amplification and the gain concept, amplifier types and circuit models, conceptual function of the transistor in amplification will be discussed. DC and thermal sensitivity analysis of transistor (BJT, MOSFET) circuits will be shown. Small signal equivalents of BJT and MOSFET as well as the AC analysis of BJT and MOSFET amplifiers will be conducted. Gain and input/output resistance of basic amplifier stages will be found and the analysis of cascade (direct/capacitively-coupled) amplifiers is done. The cascode structure, Darlington structure, the differential amplifiers, differential and common-mode gains, common mode rejection ratio will be explained. Current sources, active-loaded circuits, effect of non-idealities on the behavior will be discussed. Finally, the linear and nonlinear applications of ideal and non-ideal operational amplifiers will be considered.
