ECE 601 - Network Analysis and Synthesis

Design with active and passive elements is introduced from an immittance realization standpoint. Initially, the course deepens the student’s circuit theory to include general passive and active elements and their characterization and manipulation using matrix methods. Passive synthesis is then used as a foundation for active synthesis employing immittance-conversion devices The course also introduces some of the software packages available for approximation, network function extraction, circuit synthesis and tolerance analysis. This material provides a good background for continuing studies in signal processing, communications, passive or active circuit design. (SI)
