Course detail
FEKT-BPC-PNEAcad. year: 2025/2026
The course is complementary to the BPC-NEO. In this course, students will learn how to work with the MicroCap circuit simulator and become familiar with some of the more advanced types of analysis and functions of the program, such as mathematical analysis of signals (e.g. FFT) and advanced graphical output functions of the program. They will also learn how to use the Eagle system for PCB design. In practical laboratory classes, students will learn how to solder THT and SMT components, assemble PCBs professionally fabricated to their own design, and learn electronic circuit debugging methodology. They will then measure the parameters of the device and compare them with the parameters of the simulated design.From the 6th week of the semester onwards, practical laboratory classes take place. It includes three laboratory tasks as well as the design, simulation and construction of a simple electronic device.

Corequisites: the course is a practical complement to the BPC-NEO course, without which it makes no sense!
To successfully complete the subject, the students are required to:- possess good command of the topics discussed within Electrical Engineering 1 and 2- have working knowledge of Windows
Work in the laboratory is subject to a valid "instructed person" qualification, which students must obtain before starting the course. Information on this qualification is provided in the Dean's Guideline on Student Familiarity with Safety Regulations.
Rules for evaluation and completion of the course
A condition for obtaining credit is the completion of laboratory exercises and successful submission of the final project.
Aims
The aim of the course is to complement the theoretical knowledge from the BPC-NEO course with practical experience in the design and implementation of analogue electronic circuits. The intention of the exercise is to introduce students to computer aided design of electronic circuits from circuit design through simulation to PCB design and production documentation. In the hands-on lab sessions, students will learn soldering, PCB assembly and learn the methodology of electronic circuit debugging.Graduate of the course will:- gain a deeper understanding of circuit simulators including advanced types of analysis.- be able to work with the MicroCap simulation program and the Eagle PCB design program- gain practical skills in mounting and soldering SMT and THT components on PCBs.
