3-COURSE SERIES
Analog Design
(EDP 302646)
This professional sequence is designed to provide an understanding of analog design
fundamentals, principles, applications, current practices and standards, and emerging trends and
developments. Upon completion of the sequence, you should
- know the basics of analog integrated circuit design
- understand transistor design, layout considerations, and building-block circuits
- be familiar with practical design techniques
- be able to explain the processes of analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog conversion
- understand the role of operational amplifiers, oscillators, and amplifiers
- be able to follow developments and trends in the analog industry
This professional sequence is intended for systems engineers, circuit designers, managers, and
other professionals working with circuits and layouts.
Requirements
The program consists of two required courses and one elective course. No substitutions or
waivers are permitted. All credit courses must be taken for a grade, with a minimum grade point
average of 3.0 and no grade lower than a C.
