In this introductory-level
practical course, the students design, build and test an optical
LED-photodiode transmitter-receiver circuit. Throughout the course, the
students’ circuits become gradually more performing as they learn about,
understand and apply extra components such as diodes, transistors and opamps.
These allow to modulate and to filter the optical signal ever better,
resulting in increased transmitter-receiver distance. As a last step, a
phase-sensitive filter is added which provides a first introduction to
digital electronics. Within the bachelor programme, the
skills that are acquired in Lab Practice II enable the students not only to
formulate and implement simple electronic solutions in later assignments and
projects, but also to understand technical literature (e.g. instrumental data
sheets or device specifications) more readily. Students who wish to deepen
these skills can do so by taking the later course El.Bas. (191211730). |

The course consists of 12 lab
sessions (executed in pairs) and 5 supporting lectures. The sessions and
lectures are grouped into 4 modules. Each module starts with a reading
assignment and homework exercises, followed by 3 lab sessions in which the
newly acquired knowledge is implemented and finally by a lecture in which
this knowledge is revised, clarified if needed, and put into context. • Module
1: Kirchoff voltage and current laws; in- and output impedance; passive
filters; time- and frequency domain; diodes; rectifiers; LED and photodiode. • Module
2: Transistors; current and voltage gain; signal modulation; amplifiers;
solid-state switching. • Module
3: Operational amplifiers; positive and negative feedback; active filters;
integrators and differentiators. • Module
4: Sample-and-hold circuits; Fourier transform; phase-sensitive detection. To encourage creative design and
careful planning of the overall assignment, as well as to motivate active
participation, an informal competition is held between the student pairs in
terms of the maximum achievable distance that can be bridged with the optical
transmitter/receiver combination. Formal assessment, however, is not
based on this overall result but rather on the homework exercises, on the lab
journals, on individual interviews at the end of each module and on
demonstrations of operational sub-circuits during the lab sessions. |
