* Prerequisites: RDT1220 and
MAT1020 or MAT1812
Objectives At the completion of the subject, students should be able to design signal conditioning circuitry, including power amplifiers, for digital systems; design clock generation and regeneration systems; design converters between the analogue and digital domains; and deal appropriately with noise, cross-talk, E/M interference, decoupling, shielding, and grounding.
Synopsis In this subject, a continuation of DGS1220, students are introduced to the signal conditioning needs in digital systems, the clock generation and regeneration methods for digital systems, and the conversion techniques between the analogue and digital domains. The syllabus includes introductory discrete-time system analysis, Nyquist bound, introduction to opto-electronics, analysis and design of signal-amplitude conditioning and signal-frequency conditioning, implementing continous-time signal conditioning using op-amps, power amplifier analysis and application, A/D and D/A converter analysis and application, clock generation and regeneration including PLL techniques, and CAD tools for the analysis and design of signal-conditioning circuitry.
