Instrumentação Analógica

The following are considered to be the main objectives of this course:

• Consolidate the knowledge of electronics already acquired in a perspective of design, testing and improvement of electronic instruments in general.
• Extend knowledge to real applications of electronic equipment and devices.

As a result, not too many theoretical aspects related to circuit analysis and systems theory will be developed, since these topics are considered taught in previous courses. The emphasis will be on practical aspects directly related to the design of electronic equipment.

According to the author of the recommended reference book, 'Modern electronics is basically a simple art, a combination of some basic laws, semi-empirical rules and a big bag of tricks'. This kind of knowledge in electronics can only be transmitted to students through continued experimentation, letting them design, build and test electronic circuits.

For this reason, this course will primarily be a hands-on course where students will experience the challenges, frustration and ultimate satisfaction of producing electronic devices that meet the projected objectives!
