This course aims to develop an understanding of the fundamental principles of analysis, design and implementation of analogue electronic circuits. The course focuses on analogue electronic circuits based on the operational amplifier and related integrated circuits.

Specific topics include:

1. Basic op-amp circuits: Op-amp characteristics, differential amplifer, comparators.
2. Communication circuits: Sampling circuits, ADC and DAC converters, oscillators and timer circuits.
3. Active op-amp filter circuits: Filter responses types (low-pass, high-pass, band stop and band-pass), filter design methods (Butterworth response), Sallen-Key filter implementations.
4. Special purpose op-amp circuits: Voltage regulators, instrumentation and measurement amplifiers, isolation amplifiers, simple modulation circuits. 
5. Multistage power amplifier circuits: Classification (A, B, C).

Application areas discussed include telecommunications and control systems. MATLAB and PSPICE are used extensively in the design and implementation.
