Competencies / Learning Outcomes

Specific skills

  • K17. Explain the fundamentals of analog electronics.

  • S19. Solve simple circuits analytically in the time and frequency domains.

  • S34. Apply their capacity for critical analysis, self-knowledge, emotional intelligence and their ability to learn to learn to resolve the situations they have to face within their personal or professional sphere.

  • C10. Develop their ideas in an appropriate and well-argued manner, in writing and verbally in front of an audience, and understand and present their opinion in an argumentative manner in front of a text or audiovisual content.

  • C20. Evaluate and implement the necessary actions to correct possible deviations from what has been planned and effectively execute the assigned role within the team.

  • C29. Develop and present work and other activities, incorporating the gender perspective as a variable to be considered in the analysis of this reality and in decision-making.

Presentation of the subject

The purpose of the subject is to train students so that they are able to understand, interpret and perform calculations in the most conventional Analog Electronics circuits, made with discrete components. It is also intended to provide the student with the basic knowledge of electronic component technology. The subject is very strongly supported by the contents developed in the first year subject Electrical Systems. It should be noted that Analog Electronics can be considered the basis from which all the rest of the electronic disciplines are developed.

The classroom (physical or virtual) is a safe space, free of sexist, racist, homophobic, transphobic and discriminatory attitudes, either towards students or towards teachers. We trust that together we can create a safe space where we can make mistakes and learn without having to suffer prejudice from others.

Activities and evaluation system

The final grade (QF) of the subject is calculated as follows:

QF = EX 0,7 + P 0,2 + T 0,1

where EX=0,5 Ex1+0,5 Ex2

Ex1 and Ex2: exams

Q: internships

T: work (practical simulations)

Minimum grades:

EX: 3,0

P: 4,0

T: 4,0

The grade of the EX activity must be equal to or higher than 3,0 to be able to average with the other assessment activities. If this minimum score is not achieved, the subject will be suspended.

In case the grade of activity P is lower than the corresponding minimum mark, P = 0.

If the grade for activity T is lower than the corresponding minimum grade, T = 0.

If the subject is not passed in the ordinary assessment, there will be an extraordinary recovery session for activities Ex1 and Ex2. The grade of this recovery will replace that of Ex1 and Ex2 activities within the evaluation of the subject. P and T activities are not recoverable.

 

Important: 

Any form of academic fraud will be sanctioned in accordance with the regulations
evaluation of the center. In the event that signs of fraud are detected, including the improper use
of generative artificial intelligence tools, the subject's teachers will be able to
call the student for an individual interview with the aim of verifying
the authorship.
