KVCC ETC125 Semiconductor Devices
This theory/lab course will introduce students to a wide range of semiconductor devices, circuit theory and applications. Topics include semiconductor theory, diode types, rectifier circuits, power supply design, soldering techniques, optical diodes, BJT characteristics, transistor circuit biasing, transistor switching and amplification circuits, FETs, SCRs, and Triacs.
The lab component of this course is designed to reinforce theory by providing hands-on applications through a series of related lab projects. Students will build, test, measure, and troubleshoot electrical circuits using an array of semiconductor devices. Electronic test and measurement equipment such as the digital storage oscilloscope, function generator, digital multi-meter (DMM), variable DC power supply, soldering station, and proto-board will be used throughout the course.
