After completing the course, the student should have the following overall learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills and general competence:

Knowledge

On successful completion of this course the student has knowledge of:

• How to design a basic electronic circuit using breadboard.
• Basic PCB design tools and software.
• Different soldering techniques for both throughole and SMD components (surface-mount devices)
• Basic lab equipment, oscilloscopes, power supplies, signal generator and more.
• Ohm`s and Kirchhoff's laws.

Skills

On successful completion of this course the student has the ability to:

• Create basic electronic circuits on Breadboard and PCB.
• Solder SMD (surface-mount devices) components.
• Troubleshoot electronic circuits and PCB.

General competence

On successful completion of this course the student:

• Knows the basic electronic components
• Knows the difference between throughole and SMD (surface-mount devices) components
• Knows the physical components present in a PCB

The course will have hands-on practice work in the makerspace and lectures. 

None.

One practical project assignment to be completed individually or in groups of max 2. The project assignment consists of:

• Development of a physical artifact
• A digital documentation of the process with pictures and step-by-step descriptions of how the physical artefact was made, including short justifications (maximum 500 words)

The assessment is based on the digital documentation.

The exam can be appealed.

All aids are permitted, as long as the rules for source referencing are followed.

Pass/fail.

One internal examiners.
