Course Description

A word about safety ;Basic electrical fundamentals ; basic mathematical applications in electronic; electric-electronic active and passive components; Matter, Energy, D.C Circuits introduction; Alternating voltage and current; semi-conductors, electronic power-supplies, introduction to  amplifiers; test equipment and  measurement;

Course Objectives

The aim of the course is to let the students achieve  the first principles and the basic concepts of electronic  ; additionally students will  be provided with background knowledge to help them understand the further concepts introduced later in the course; an understanding of common types of electronic components –i.e  passive components ; the most usefull laws of electronics  and their applications  in DC Circuits will then be introduced; waveshaping using RC-RL –LC circuits will be taught;basic alternating circuits components  - terminology will be discussed ; introduction to transformers  will also be given ;  the students acquire knowledge and skills  about the properties of basic  semiconductors; they will acquire information and skills to tackle with semiconductor diodes,zener diodes,thyristors,triacs and light emitting diodes (LED); they will acquire the basic knowledge of transistors; introduction to transistorized amplifiers will be taught ; the most valuable circuits in electronics i.e power supplies will be taught explaining regulation,rectification; the basic skills to make practical measurements will be explained using meters-analog-digital- multi/range/ functional ones; use of oscilloscopes will also be delivered at this stage. Introduction to wave generation, propagation, transmission, antenna and waveguide principles will be covered together with RF Communication and Radar basics and introduction of  the maritime platforms  (vessels) based Gyroes and electrical and electronic based devices  in parallel  .
