Purpose and Content

The aim of the course The aim of this course is to enable students to understand the physical properties of semiconductor materials, which constitute the fundamental building blocks of electronic circuits, as well as the operating principles and in-circuit behavior of components such as diodes and transistors manufactured from these materials. In addition, the course aims to equip students with the ability to perform measurement and evaluation in both direct and alternating current circuits, accurately measure and interpret basic electrical quantities, and apply the principles, limitations, and sources of error of the measuring instruments used.
Course Content Introduction to semiconductor technology; properties of conductive, insulating, and semiconductor materials; doping methods and P–N type materials. PN junction, diode structure, and forward and reverse bias conditions. Diode analysis in direct current circuits and application examples. Characteristics of AC signals and diode behavior in AC circuits. Applications of diodes, including rectifier, clipper, and clamping circuits. Zener diodes, transistor structure and current relationships, and DC biasing of transistors. Measurement of electrical quantities, principles of measuring instruments, measurement errors, loading effects of measurement devices, and statistical analysis. Methods for extending the measurement range of ammeters and voltmeters; measurements performed with ammeters, voltmeters, ohmmeters, and oscilloscopes. Measurement and integrity testing of circuit components (resistors, capacitors, inductors, etc.), semiconductor integrity tests, and experimental studies related to power and alternating current measurements.
