To Do[edit source]

  • To expand this to go more in depth about electronics, such as specific components, logic, and so on.
  • fix missing picture
Done, all that was needed was to remove the extra "w:" as the image is now at the Commons. А 22:56, 26 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

--EpsilonRho 05:11, 7 April 2006 (UTC) [what exactly do you want help with? Is the material supposed to be at a university level or do you want an idiot's guide to electronics?[reply]

--Salgat 02:37, 14 June 2006 (UTC) True, this is a very simple guide, if anything a quick introduction. I suggest heavily expanding this guide, having it go more in depth. So, it actually teaches about real electronics.[reply]

Self teaching oriented[edit source]

Most of the other wikiversity modules have become specifically for people who are trying to self teach themself something. maybe this school should change too. --V2os 20:19, 8 September 2005 (UTC) (the wikiversity.org proposal seems to suggest this is what they want and not a syllabus)[reply]

VOTING[edit source]

I urge all contributers to wikiversity to vote on the future of wikiversity. If wikiversity is deleted, then everything we have done comes to nothing. Be bold!

Where do we vote? I've been kind of confused about thatEpachamo 18:33, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Organization[edit source]

I think that instead of starting the lesson on electronical elgeeniring with mathematical laws, the lesson should begin explaining what is and what is not electronics. The deep mathematics, or very theoretical and to most of us useless stuff like atom models, doping materials and concentrations, etc should be discused in a indepth article.

Also, since electronics is so broad, it will be very dificult and pointless to try to have very specific and in depth information on all subjects. Also, consider that to give an adecuate course on a given subject, you need a very good understanding of that field and nobody has a very good understanding of every field of electronics. So,I sugest we give a overview of electronics with in depth articles

I would recoment the leasons be something like the following:

What are electronics. What an electronic signal is. Explain voltage and current and how it represent the information of interest in a signal.

Explain the difference between passive electronics devices and active electronic devices.

Explain the difference between analog and digital. (A good explanation is needed here, not just the incorrect usual "analog is dead, digital is the future").

The resistor, and its laws (ohms, kirchol, etc.) Some simple resitor networks (all direct current or voltage only).

Better concept of how the information of interest can be represented by and electronic singal, introduction of Alternating current, Frecuency and phase concepts.

Pasive analog electronic components: Resistor Capacitor and Inductor and their propieties. Some simple filters.

Pasive analog filter design.

Active components: Diode, Bipolar transitor and MOSFET transitor.

The most important analog building block : The operational amplifier

Opamp configurations: Add, substracnt, multiply/divide, integrate and diferentiate.

Digital Logic: Diferences between analog and digital.

Binary system, Boolean logic, and basic memoryless digital gates.

Digital gates with memory: Flip flops.

Finite State Machines.

Some sugestions for In-depth articles:

Analog system processing. Digital system processing. Moore's Law and system integration. Fabrication of semiconductor devices. Analog Active Filter. Microcontrollers MOSFET transistor modes, regions of operation, and frecuency response. Bipolar transistor modes, regions of operation, and frecuency response. Diferencial pair.


Just some thoughts. Let me know what do you think. NightHawk


Agreed, this section looks like utter crap Salgat 06:05, 18 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]
