Course Description:
EENG 3920 is the project design course for electronics courses. Students are required to design electronic communication systems with electronic devices such as MOS transistors, capacitors and resistors. The design and simulation tool is the NI ELVIS platform. Topics include LC circuits and oscillators, AM modulation, SSB communications and FM modulation.
