1. Rationale
Digital Electronics is a field of electronics involving the study of digital signals and engineering of devices that
use or produce them. It is very important in today’s life because if digital circuits are used instead of analog
circuits the signals can be transmitted without degradation due to noise. Also in a digital system information
stored is easier than that of analog systems. The functionality of digital circuits can be changed easily with the
help of software without changing the actual circuit. Verilog, a Hardware Description Language, is used for
describing digital electronic circuits and systems. It is used for verification of digital circuits through simulation,
for timing analysis, for test analysis and for logic synthesis.

2. Course Outcomes: On successful completion of the course, the students will be able to:
CO-01 List the types of Verilog modeling and the use of each model for specific application
CO-02 Design and construct a sequential circuit for a given application and test the circuit to obtain the
desired result/output.
CO-03 Compare and contrast combinational and sequential circuits and simulate a given circuit using
Verilog descriptions to test to obtain the desired result/output
CO-04 List the various types of A to D, D to A converters along with memory and for a given application
select the appropriate converters and/or memory types to be used to obtain the given
result/output.

1. Rationale
The communication system describes the information exchange between any two points. The process of
transmission and reception of information is called communication. Without communication the world ceases
to exist. Information or Data can be transmitted and received across any part of the world by adapting suitable
techniques, process and medium, hence making the world reachable and smaller through Technology.

2. Course Outcomes : On successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
CO-01 Identify all the components of a communication system, list their role and characteristics in
the system.
CO-02 Propagate a signal through a transmission medium to obtain a desired output for given
conditions in the communication system.
CO-03 Construct an analog/digital communication system for a given application and demonstrate
its working either in a Real or Simulated environment.

1. Rationale
The instruments used to measure any Electrical/Electronic quantity are known as measuring instruments. The
standards of measurements are very useful for calibration of measuring instruments. They help in minimizing
the errors in the measuring systems. Testing Techniques are means of enhancing troubleshooting and the
ability to learn skills. It keeps electronic equipment in working condition and ensures safety. The damage of the
equipment can be significantly reduced.

2. Course Outcomes : At the end of the Course, the student will be able to:
CO-01 List the types of measurement and common errors that occur while using electronic measuring
systems and demonstrate use of statistical analysis to validate specific output from measuring
and testing equipment.
CO-02 Explain the standards used for calibration and demonstrate calibration of a measuring and/or
testing equipment to ensure it provides reliable output.
CO-03 Select an appropriate sensor or transducer for a given application and demonstrate its use to
measure and record the readings for a given project.

1. Rationale

Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs) are the core component in almost all the electronic gadgets used either for
domestic or industrial purposes. PCBs hold almost all electronic components necessary for a device to function.
Using a PCB has many advantages such as compact design, ease of testing and repair, low noise and
interference, and improved reliability. Apart from electrically connecting, it also gives mechanical support to
the electrical components. Using PCBs, a highly complicated circuit can be designed in a very small package
which helps in reducing the size of electronic devices.

PCB design can be done either manually or using software. Electronic design automation tools are software
tools used for designing the schematic and layout of PCB. Large number of PCBs can be fabricated at the same
time after the layout is designed once. With consumers pushing for slimmer and faster devices, and with
industries seeking improved functionality, the PCB will continue to develop in the future.

2. Course Outcomes: On successful completion of the course, the students will be able to:

Identify different types of Printed Circuit Board (PCB), list the differences between them and
CO-1
its adequacy for specific application.
CO -2 Draw the schematic and PCB layout for an analog circuit to be used for a given application.
CO-3 Select the right components for a designed circuit, build the circuit and fabricate it using the
appropriate tools following all necessary safety protocols.
CO-4 Test the fabricated circuit, identify the problem and troubleshoot to ensure the circuit
provides the desired output.

1. Rationale
The purpose of wireless communication is to communicate messages over distances without the use of wires. It
includes an exposure to microwave engineering, radar systems, cellular and satellite communication. In the
microwave industry, job opportunities are available in assembly, production, installation, repair and
maintenance of microwave transmitters and receivers. The knowledge of radar systems allows opportunities
with civil and defence organizations dealing with aircraft and shipping. Satellite communication is used to relay
signals around the curvature of Earth allowing communication between widely separated points. Mobile
communication is a fast changing technology which offers voice and data connectivity between individuals.

2. Course Outcomes: On successful completion of the course, the students will be able to:
CO-1 Identify the types of wireless communications, list differences and its applications.
CO-2 Identify the components of a given wireless communication system, explain the role of those
components in the system and list their characteristics.
CO-3 Build a working model of a wireless communication system to be used for a specific application.
CO-4 Test a given set top Box / mobile phone, identify the problem and troubleshoot to ensure the device
is fully functional.

1. Rationale
Automation in the industrial workplace provides the advantages of improving productivity and quality while
reducing errors and waste, increasing safety, and adding flexibility to the manufacturing process. Industrial
automation results in increased productivity, more efficient use of materials, increased safety, reliability, better
product quality, shorter workweeks for labour, profitability and reduced factory lead times. Worker safety is an
important reason for automating an industrial operation. A wide range of industrial controls and automation
depends on power electronics. PLC is an industrial computer control system used to control the state of output
devices based upon a custom program. SCADA is a centralized system that monitors and controls field devices
at remote sites.

2. Course Outcomes: On successful completion of the course, the students will be able to
Explain the role and importance of power electronics in today's industrial automation and for a
CO-01 given application list the commonly used components in power electronics.
CO-02 Build a power electronic circuit and demonstrate the working of that circuit for a specific
application either in a real or simulated environment.
CO-03 Design, test and troubleshoot a given PLC automation system to meet defined operational
specifications in a simulated environment.
CO-04 Explain the concept of SCADA, DCS and HMI and list their various applications in industry.
