Syllabus, Target Schedule, Presence sheet Template
Course Learning Goals and Objectives: To learn to use and apply the fundamental concepts of nonlinear electronic circuits. Nonlinear, piecewise linear, and large and small signal analysis and design concepts will be emphasized. The concepts learned will be applied to the p-n diode, bipolar junction and field-effect transistor circuits. DC biasing schemes for these devices will be developed. DC and AC load line analysis of diode and transistor circuits will be taught and applied to amplifier analysis and design.

Student Evaluation of Teaching: Students will complete evaluation forms at the
end of the semester.
Notes:
1. This syllabus may be
changed by the instructor as needed for good adademic practice.
2. Quizzes and tests are
closed book, no notes, calculator allowed, straight edge recommended.
3. There will be no make-up,
or early exams given. Attendance is required for all tests.
4. Americans with Disabilities
Act: The University of Texas at Arlington is on record as being committed to
both the spirit and letter of federal equal opportunity legislation; reference
Public Law 93112—The Rehabilitation Act of 1973 as amended. With the
passage of new federal legislation entitled Americans with Disabilities Act –
(ADA), pursuant to section 504 of The Rehabilitation Act, there is renewed
focus on providing this population with the same opportunities enjoyed by all
citizens. As a faculty member, I am required by law to provide “reasonable
accommodation” to students with disabilities, so as not to discriminate on the
basis of that disability. Student responsibility primarily rests with
informing faculty at the beginning of the semester and in providing authorized
documentation through designated administrative channels. In conformance with
the Americans with disabilities Act, I state that, "If you require an
accommodation based on disability, I would like to meet with you in the privacy
of my office during the first week of the semester to make sure you are
properly accommodated. Contact Dr. Cheryl Cardell (272-3670) or Mr. Jim
Hayes (272-3364) for more information."
5. It is the philosophy of
The University of Texas at Arlington that academic dishonesty is a completely
unacceptable mode of conduct and will not be tolerated in any form. All
persons involved in academic dishonesty will be disciplined in accordance with
University regulations and procedures. Discipline may include suspension or
expulsion from the University. “Scholastic dishonesty includes but is not
limited to cheating, plagiarism, collusion, the submission for credit of any
work or materials that are attributable in whole or in part to another person,
taking an examination for another person, any act designed to give unfair
advantage to a student or the attempt to commit such acts.” (Regents’
Rules and Regulations, Part One, Chapter VI, Section 3, Subsection 3.2,
Subdivision 3.22). ANY CHEATING WILL RESULT IN SEVERE PENALTIES. All work submitted
must be original. If derived from another source, a full bibliographical
citation must be given.
6. If identical papers are
submitted by different students, the grade earned will be divided among all
identical papers.
7. A paper submitted for
regrading will be compared to a copy of the original paper. If changed,
points will be deducted.
