Course detail
Design of Electronic Devices
FEKT-BPC-NEZAcad. year: 2023/2024
The course is strongly oriented on practical knowledge. Students will learn the whole design flow of a typical electronic device from specification up to realization using off-the-shelf EDA and CAD tools. All the design steps are described, explained and demonstrated on examples. For every part of the design process typical recent software tools are introduced. Special attention is given to power supply subsystem design with regard to recent trends in this area (switch mode power supplies, resonant converters, battery power, energy harvesting). Students will simulate elementary circuits of power supplies, perform its design using recent software tools, design its PCB and export manufacturing outputs.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
Evaluation of activities is specified by a regulation, which is issued by the lecturer responsible for the course annually.
Aims
The graduate is able to
- select and use EDA and CAD tools for electronics design
- analyze requirements on an electronic system and propose its architecture
- describe parasitic properties of real electronic components and evaluate their impact on power supply properties
- compare properties (qualities) of different electronic components and choose appropriate on for target application
- explain functionality of both linear and switched mode power supplies
- choose suitable power supply topology (both linear and switched) according to the design needs
- calculate values of and requirements on basic components of power a supply
- design a protection and cooling for a power supply
