Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • Imagine, implement and operate systems/solutions/software to deal with a complex problem in the field of electricity by integrating needs, contexts and issues (technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
    • On the basis of modelling and experimentation, design one or more systems / one or more solutions / one or more software and/or hardware implementations responding to the problem posed; evaluate them taking into account the various parameters of the specifications.
    • Implement a chosen system/solution/software/circuit in the form of a diagram, flow chart, algorithm, plan, model, prototype, program, software and/or digital model.
  • Mobilise a structured set of scientific knowledge and skills and specialised techniques in order to carry out electrical engineering missions, using their expertise and adaptability.
    • Master and mobilise knowledge, models, methods and techniques relating to the basics of electricity, electronics, automation, signal analysis and processing, telecommunications; modern electrical network engineering (production, transport, distribution); electric vehicles; advanced electronic systems; wired and wireless telecommunications; intelligent sensors; human-machine interfaces; mathematical modelling and analysis of dynamic systems; process control; image processing and processing; and the use of the Internet; advanced electronic systems; wired and wireless telecommunications; intelligent sensors; human-machine interfaces; mathematical modelling and analysis of dynamic systems; process control; image and sound processing and, more s
    • Analyse and model a problem by critically selecting theories and methodological approaches (modelling, calculations), and taking into account multidisciplinary aspects.
  • Plan, manage and lead projects in view of their objectives, resources and constraints, ensuring the quality of activities and deliverables.
    • Assess the approach and achievements, regulate them in view of the observations and feedback received.
    • Respect deadlines and timescales
  • Work effectively in teams, develop leadership, and make decisions in multidisciplinary, multicultural and international contexts.
    • Make decisions, individually or collectively, taking into account the parameters involved (human, technical, economic, societal, ethical and environmental).
  • Communicate and exchange information in a structured way - orally, graphically and in writing, in French and in one or more other languages - scientifically, culturally, technically and interpersonally, by adapting to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
    • Argue to and persuade collaborators, clients, teachers and boards, both orally and in writing.
    • Select and use the written and oral communication methods and materials adapted to the intended purpose and the relevant public.
    • Master technical English in the field of electrical engineering.
  • Adopt a professional and responsible approach, showing an open and critical mind in an independent professional development process.
    • Exploit the different means available in order to inform and train independently.
  • Contribute by researching the innovative solution of a problem in engineering sciences.
    • Collect and analyse data rigorously.
    • Communicate, in writing and orally, on the approach and its results in highlighting both the scientific criteria of the research conducted and the theoretical and technical innovation potential, as well as possible non-technical issues.

Learning Outcomes of UE

Students should be able: to understand the advanced models of MOS and bipolar transistors, to understand and design the basic analog blocks: differential amplifiers, output stages in CMOS and bipolar technology, voltage and current references. To assembly basic analog blocks for designing several types of multi-stage amplifiers such as operational amplifiers, to understand the imperfections of operational amplifiers and their impacts in the application circuits, to analyze feedback amplifiers, to analyze the stability and frequency response of amplifiers, to design more complex analog architectures such as switched capacitor filters and DCDC switched converters. To learn how to design analog circuits from the specifications by means of the gm/ID methodology, to acquire notions of analog microelectronics.
 

UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance

Theory-Exercices mode course, in face-to-face mode, preferably. In the case of eventual sanitary problems, the course will be switched to distance mode. Students must be present during the first course lecture. Contents: multistage amplifiers with MOS and bipolar transistors; study of some typical circuits with several transistors; frequency response of the amplifiers; noise on electronics devices and their impacts in the amplifier, mismatch, output stages; internal circuits of operational amplifiers; feedback amplifiers : PP, SS, PS, SP, stability and compensation of operational amplifiers; synthesis of operational amplifiers; notions of analog microelectronics, examples of more complex analogue systems: switched capacitor filters,  DCDC switched converters, ADC and DAC converters.
