Requirements (Subjects that are assumed to be known)
An introductory course on Digital, Analog and Power Electronics
Objectives
COMPETENCES (CG2, CE3, CE8, CE10, CG1, CE11, CG4) Capacity to design and test an electronic system on an specific application. Capacity to handle advanced techniques for system electronic design. Capacity to resolve real problems of interferences to get electromagnetic compatibility on equipment and systems. Capacity to apply techniques for the development of electronic circuits and devices, as PCB and EMI filter design. Capacity to make clear documentation explaining the development, design and application of complex electronic systems. Capacity to make data searching related to the technology state of the art. To be able to work in a collaborative group. LEARNING RESULTS The student learns basic concepts about EMI, EMC, conducted and radiated emissions, coupling types, surges etc. The student learns to resolve real problems related to the electromagnetic interaction between electronic equipment and systems, and how to apply the standards on these cases. The course allow acquiring design techniques which complements with others needed to reach its functionality. There are specific techniques to reduce electromagnetic EMI noise on PCB, cables, cardcages and boxes. Also, how to protect from conducted and radiated internal/external surges, including power supply network, electrostatic discharges, lightning transitories etc.. These techniques apply to any type of electric/electronic devices, and to applications based on microprocessors, FPGA, analog or power electronics. It also can be used for system design of vehicles, aircrafts, military equipment, distribution and power systems, robots, etc..

Learning activities and methodology
Theory sessions Practice sessions Theoretical-practical sessions Individual guided sessions Grouped guided sessions METHODOLOGY The teacher explains in sessions with presentations based on slides. Some real problems are presented to the students. These problems are exposed and discussed on the sessions. There is also a final work that each student group must elaborate at the end of the course.
