Students will on average spend 150 hours over the teaching period undertaking the teaching, learning and assessment activities for this unit.
1 x 2 hour online content per week (recordings provided), 1 x 1 hour seminar per week, 4 x 3 hour practical per trimester. Students are required to attend and participate in practical activities for this unit at scheduled sessions on multiple days during the trimester.
1 x 2 hours of online content per week (recordings provided), 1 x 1 hour online seminar per week. Students are required to attend and participate in practical activities at the Geelong Waurn Ponds Campus on the scheduled 1 day during the trimester intensive week (typically week 7) which aligns with assessment task 3 (laboratory report).
This is a knowledge and skill-based unit focusing on analogue and digital electronics. The first part of the unit covers the theory and applications of combinatorial and sequential logic circuits and systems. These will include standard SSI and MSI devices such as logic gates, flip-flops, counters and adders. The second part of the unit covers the operation and applications of amplifiers and related devices. It will cover small-signal amplifiers based on bipolar-junction transistors and junction field effect transistors, as well as practical op-amps and its applications.
Design and build combinational and sequential logic circuits that map given inputs to achieve desired output patterns.
GLO1: Discipline-specific knowledge and capabilitiesGLO4: Critical thinkingGLO5: Problem solving
ULO2
Use number conversion and perform binary arithmetic that mimics the operation of a digital computer.
GLO1: Discipline-specific knowledge and capabilitiesGLO5: Problem solving
ULO3
Apply fundamental technical knowledge to analyse the operation of transistors both as switches and as small-signal amplifiers.
ULO4
Apply fundamental technical knowledge to describe and analyse op-amp circuits.
ULO5
Design amplifiers for analogue signal processing and for conditioning analogue signals before digitization.
These Unit Learning Outcomes are applicable for all teaching periods throughout the year
The assessment due weeks provided may change. The Unit Chair will clarify the exact assessment requirements, including the due date, at the start of the teaching period.
To be eligible to obtain a pass in this unit, students must achieve an overall mark of at least 40% in the examination and a mark of at least 40% on the laboratory reports.
The texts and reading list for the unit can be found on the University Library via the link below: SEE216 Note: Select the relevant trimester reading list. Please note that a future teaching period's reading list may not be available until a month prior to the start of that teaching period so you may wish to use the relevant trimester's prior year reading list as a guide only.
