Engineers create, support and sell machines. A microprocessor is a machine; so is a hammer or a glove.

Anything
which extends human ability is called a machine. (Barry Harvey, page 9, The Art and Science of Analog Circuit
Design, 1998 Butterworth-Heinemann)

Electronic Engineering Program


The Electronic Engineering Program at the SSUET offers the following courses which have the following
underlying themes:
Basics:

Applied Physics
Engineering Materials
Introduction to Computers
Computer Aided Engineering Drawing
Basic Electrical Engineering
Network Analysis-I
Network Analysis-II

FINAL YEAR PROJECT


The Final Year Project (FYP) is the
application of the knowledge gained
during the four year undergraduate
program. The FYP may incorporate any
or all fields in its construction. For
example, a project about a rudderless
unmanned aircraft would require a
propulsion system, servos and stepper
motors, a digital control system because
such aircrafts are inherently unstable
thus requiring thousands of minor
corrections per second, embedded
controllers and wireless communication
systems. Final year projects are all about
finding the solutions to engineering
problems.

EE219 ELECTRONIC DEVICES AND CIRCUITS (3+1)


For sections E and F Third Semester, 2007 Batch
Instructor: Muhammad Umar Sajid (Room CS-3), Department of Electronic
Engineering
Course Introduction: Think of this course as ABC of analog circuit
analysis and design. We first learn how to analyze transistor circuits and
how transistors work in tandem with other devices. With this knowledge, we
can learn to design any circuit for any given problem. After all engineering
is all about problem solving.
The main focus of this course is the analysis of transistor circuits operating
in ac domain.
Course outline:
Transistors Modeling Techniques: Introduction, Reproduction and
Amplification, Bias and Signal Components, Voltage Current and Power
Gains, Voltage Amplifier Representation, Amplifier Analytical Procedure,
Coupling capacitor, Cascaded Amplifiers, Hybrid Equivalent Model, Graphical
Determination of h-parameters, Approximate h-parameters.
BJT Small Signal Analysis: CE Bias Configuration, Emitter Follower
Configuration, CB Configuration, Collector Feedback Configuration,
Approximate Hybrid Equivalent Circuits, Complete Hybrid Equivalent Model.
FET Small Signal Analysis: FET Small Signal Model, AC Equivalent
Circuits, Source Follower & Common Gate Circuits, Design of JFET Amplifier
Circuits.
System Approach: Effects of RS and RL, Combined Effects of RS and RL,
FET Networks.

Notes:
In case of any holiday including official ones, an extra class would be
scheduled in the following week.
There are no marks for attendance during lectures.

The tests and vivae would be given in lab during lab hours. In case of
any holiday on the date of tests/vivae, the tests/vivae would be given in
the next class.
Probably, due to the large number of holidays in the spring semester
2008, theory classes would be carried out during the lab timings in the
lab. This would happen occasionally. And by the way, semesters 3, 5 and
7 are already one week late.

Course website:
http://www.ssuet.edu.pk/courses/ee219
[This website would be fully functional in the second week of
February 2008]
This website would contain the following:
Lecture notes
Solved problems
End of chapter solutions (selected problems from selected chapters)
Announcements of extra classes, tests and viva dates and times
Student record (sessional marks)
Laboratory manual
Solved test papers
All documents are in portable document format. You will need a PDF viewer
such as Adobe Acrobat Reader to view these files. Downloading over a dial
up connection would take a very long time.
This website is an optional part of this course. The updates would be done
at the weekends only. Frequent network problems due to the dilapidated
intranet would make the website inaccessible. Do not rely only on the
website. Keep your class lecture notes up to date.
