Laboratory Work Micro-Electronics and Telecommunications

Module name (EN):
Name of module in study programme. It should be precise and clear.
Laboratory Work Micro-Electronics and Telecommunications
Degree programme:
Study Programme with validity of corresponding study regulations containing this module.
Electrical Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2012
Module code: E1617
SAP-Submodule-No.:
The exam administration creates a SAP-Submodule-No for every exam type in every module. The SAP-Submodule-No is equal for the same module in different study programs.
P211-0187, P211-0188
Hours per semester week / Teaching method:
The count of hours per week is a combination of lecture (V for German Vorlesung), exercise (U for Übung), practice (P) oder project (PA). For example a course of the form 2V+2U has 2 hours of lecture and 2 hours of exercise per week.
6P (6 hours per week)
ECTS credits:
European Credit Transfer System. Points for successful completion of a course. Each ECTS point represents a workload of 30 hours.
6
Semester: 6
Mandatory course: yes
Language of instruction:
English/German
Assessment:
project work (67%) and project documentation (5 laboratory experiments which accompany the studies) (33%)

Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

E1617 (P211-0187, P211-0188) Electrical Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2012 , semester 6, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
90 class hours (= 67.5 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 180 hours (equivalent to 6 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 112.5 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.

Learning outcomes:
The students
-have a broad knowledge of microelectronics and telecommunications, which is complemented by the latest developments
- have learned how to simulate complex circuits and systems on the basis of practice-oriented problems by using commercially available simulation software, like e.g. Matlab and PSpice
-can process the gained simulation results graphically, to interpret and assess them, to find perfect solutions before implementing them technically
-have improved their social and communicative competence by working in a team and presenting their solutions in front of their team in the laboratory
