Learning Outcomes
Ability to describe electronic functions and/or advanced electronics: electronic components on AC network, oscillators, instrumentation amplifiers, analogue/digital and digital/analogue converters, energy converters.
Ability to describe the complete functioning of a moderately-complex electronic circuit, identification of previously studied common functions and sub-functions and using written English technical documentation on components.
Content
The Advanced electronics teaching unit will consist of lectures, tutorials, and laboratory sessions. More complete functions will be studied through the association of standard electronic components: Thryristor and TRIAC on AC networks, sinusoidal oscillators, astable multi-vibrators, ADC and DAC converters, sample and hold circuits, instrumentation amplifiers, linear and switch-mode power supplies, inverters and thyristors.
Reading and analysis of graphics and circuits, with different complexity levels. These exercises are based on technical documentation from industrial and domestic applications.
Pre-requisites / co-requisites
Electronics Bases and semester 5 - Year 3 lab work.

Assessment(s)
Nature Coefficient Observable objectives
1Written assessment of 2h30 in 3 parts (3 modes of assessment):
1/ A complete applied realization implementing the main components and functions studied
2/ A more targeted application on an energy conversion assembly
3/ Analysis of an assembly specific to components on an AC network
2- Apply the relevant resolution methods for different types of circuit systems.
- Describe how a moderately complex electronic circuit works, starting from an analysis of subsets and characteristic signals.
2- Realization of 4 labworks session of 2 hours each as direct application of elements of the course and tutorials.
- No report to be given to the teacher. The student is autonomous and responsible for taking personal notes of the applications and observations (each step, observation and analysis being taken up with the whole group). All of these elements are complements, illustrations, direct applications of several parts of chapters of the course.
- Before each session, the student must carry out personal pre-work: reading part of the course, specific preparatory calculation. The session takes place step by step with summary points (analysis, readings, calculations, etc.) carried out with the whole group
- The students are evaluated in pairs (except in dissociating cases) on their proactive "behaviour" during the practical work session: the points of these evaluations are presented at the first lesson session and a descriptive sheet is always left available to the students. A session takes place with a maximum of 18 students.
1- Experiment the use of a thyristor on a R and L load on AC network: analysis of the signals and the electronic control circuit. Modify the assembly for a TRIAC type command.
-Assess and explain the design and drawing of a printed circuit board when using a placement/routing software
-Assess and explain the use of an electronic circuit simulation software: example of a power converter (as treated in class on energy converters).
