Assignment 1 - Single function analogue circuits
Learning aim 1: Investigate through research and simulation the operation of single function analogue electronic circuits.
Learning aim 2: Explore the operation of single function analogue electronic circuits safely that form the building blocks of commercial circuits.
Task 1 You have been asked to explore a range of single function analogue circuits by carrying out software simulation and constructing circuits to compare their theoretical and physical operation.
To do this:
Your tutor will provide you with a range of circuit diagrams for six different types of analogue circuit. You need to:
a) Use a Computer Aided Design software package to capture and simulate at least two circuits for each of the analogue circuit types.
o Power supply
o Passive filters
o Transistor amplifiers
o Operational Amplifiers
o Oscillators
o Communications applications
You should make sure that your diagrams are drawn to appropriate national or international standards.
b) Use an appropriate prototyping method to construct each of the analogue electronic circuits in activity a) and take measurements to demonstrate the operation of each one (at least twelve circuits in total).
c) Calculate theoretical measurements for each type of analogue circuit (at least twelve circuits in total) to demonstrate the relationship between component values and circuit parameters.
You should then:
Compare the results from your simulation, the physical circuit and theoretical calculation for each of the analogue circuits. You should use this comparison to evaluate the operation of each of the circuits, taking into account any differences between the results gathered from the physical circuits and those achieved theoretically or through simulations.
Note: You may prefer to carry out the "investigate, simulate, build and test and write up" of each circuit before progressing to the next circuit.
You should then:
Compare the results from your simulation, the physical circuit and theoretical calculation for each of the analogue circuits. You should use this comparison to evaluate the operation of each of the circuits, taking into account any differences between the results gathered from the physical circuits and those achieved theoretically or through simulations.
