Course detail

Electronic Components and Materials

FEKT-BPC-ESMAcad. year: 2025/2026

The subject is focused on knowledge in materials for electronics and electronics and basic electronics components (semiconductor diode, bipolar and unipolar transistor, passive components). The laboratory exercises are focused on practicing the properties of basic circuits with diodes and transistors.

Rules for evaluation and completion of the course

Evaluation of study results follow the BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations and Dean's Regulation complementing the BUT Rules for Studies and Examinations. Up to 30 points can be obtained for completion of tasks in laboratory exercises. Up to 70 points are given for the final examination.
It is obligatory to undergo all laboratory exercises in regular or alternative terms to complete the course. Other forms of checked instruction are specified by a regulation issued by the guarantor of the course and updated for every academic year.

Aims

The aim of the course is to acquaint students with materials for electrical and electronic engineering, and basic passive and active electronic elements.
On completion of the course, students are able to:
- orient in materials for electrical engineering and electronics,
- classify electrotechnical materials in terms of electrical conductivity and behavior in electric and magnetic fields,
- define parasitic properties of resistors, capacitors and inductors and explain the impact of used materials and design to formation or suppression of these parasitic properties,
- explain the operation of PN junction as rectifier, voltage stabilizer and controlled differential resistance,
- describe the structure of the bipolar transistor and explain its operation,
- describe the structure of unipolar transistors JFET and MOSFET and explain their operation.
