11. Mission of EEE Department  Educate young leaders for academia, industry,
entrepreneurship, and public and private organization
through theory and practical knowledge to solve engineering
problems individually and in teams.
 Create knowledge through innovative research and
collaboration with multiple disciplines and societies.
 Serve the communities at national, regional, and global
levels with ethical and professional responsibilities.
12. Vision of EEE Department To become a front runner in preparing Electrical and Electronics
Engineering graduates to be nationally and globally competitive and
thereby contribute value for the knowledge-based economy and
welfare for the people of the world.
13. Rationale of the Course This is core course of Electrical and Electronic Engineering program
(Course Description) that presents basic tools for the design of power electronic circuits. It
promotes the knowledge about the design and implementation of
converters for practical engineering applications and formulating
their solutions.
14. Course Content The course is designed to provide students with:
 Basic concepts of semiconductor devices: types,
parameters, and characteristics such as p-n junction and
Zener diode.
 The physical principles, construction, characteristics,
modelling and limitations of diodes, field-effect and
bipolar junction transistors.
 The analysis of different applications of diode as
rectifiers, clippers, clampers and voltage regulator.
 The analysis of the performance of transistor circuits and
single stage transistor amplifiers.
 The introduction of digital circuits based on FET.
 The use of a circuit simulation package to model
circuits.

19. Learning Materials

Formal lectures will provide the theoretical base for the subject as well as covering its practical application. A set
of lecture notes, tutorial examples, with subsequent discussion and explanation, together with suggested reading
will support and direct the students in their own personal study.

Maximum topics will be covered from the textbook. For the rest of the topics, reference books will be followed.
Some Class notes will be uploaded on the web. White board will be used for most of the time.

For some cases, multimedia projector will be used for the convenience of the students.

Students must study up to the last lecture before coming to the class and it is suggested that they should go
through the relevant chapter before coming to the class. Just being present in the class is not enough- students
must participate in classroom discussions.
