Timetables
Description of module content:

This module will enhance knowledge from basic electrical & electronic principles studied in year1, The electronic section will apply it to a more integrated electronics systems approach. The electrical section will build upon AC theory and introduce Electrical machines and 3-phase systems. Topics include:Linear and non-linear applications, introduction to negative feedback, bandwidth.Digital circuits: NAND/NOR digital circuit implementation. SR, JK, D and T flip-flops - Shift registers - synchronous, asynchronous and cascaded counters.Logic Families (CMOS/TTL): Logic levels, noise margins, rise & fall times, fan in/out.Network Theorems: Superposition; Thevenin?s; Norton?s; maximum power transfer.Electrical Machines: Electromagnetics, components; principle of operation. Three-phase Systems: balanced three-phase systems; star and delta connections; relationship between phase and line quantities.
