158 Electronics Technology Transfer Some institutions offer a bachelors degree in Electronics Technology and Industrial Technology. Check appropriate catalog(s) and consult a counselor. Prerequisite Completion If a course is listed as a prerequisite for another course, that prerequisite course must be completed with a satisfactory grade in order to enroll in the next course. According to the California Education Code [55200 (d)] a satisfactory grade is a grade of A, B, C or CR". Electronics Technology Courses ELTE 101 *SURVEY OF ELECTRONICS 4 units 6 hours weekly Advisory: Eligibility for ENGL 097, READ 099 and MATH 070. An overview of the history of the scientific method as it has been developed and applied to the laws of Physics, Chemistry and Math as it pertains to electronics. The physics of direct and alternating current circuits, semiconductors, and integrated circuits (ICs) as they pertain in areas such as electrical power generation and distribution, electronic communications, medical electronics, industrial electronics, and computers will be covered. Through- out the course, the scientific history, political and socioeconomic aspects of electronics technology will be examined. The laboratory facilitates hands -on use of electrical monitoring equipment. This allows comprehension of the electrical phenomenon to be displayed, thereby, providing an indication of the presence of the physics of the electrical occurrence. (CSU, AVC) ELTE 110 *ELECTRONICS MATHEMATICS 4 units 4 hours weekly Advisory: Eligibility for ENGL 099, READ 099 and MATH 070. Scientific notation, manipulation of algebraic expressions, basic trigonometry, logarithms, Boolean algebra, and use of electronic calculators. Emphasis is on using mathematics as a tool for understanding the principles of electronics. (AVC) ELTE 125 *DIRECT CURRENT AND ALTERNATING CURRENT PRINCIPLES 5 units 6 hours weekly (3 hours lec, 3 hours lec/lab) Course Prerequisite: Completion of ELTE 110 or concurrent enrollment. Advisory: Eligibility for ENGL 099, READ 099 and MATH 070. Basic concepts of direct current including voltage, current, power, and resistance Ohms Law and Kirchhoff s Laws are used to analyze series, parallel, and series- parallel circuits. Concepts of alternating current including voltage and current phasing, power factors, resistance, reactance and impedance. Capacitive and inductive circuits are included. Laboratory experiments reinforce theory and also teach proper use of test equipment and soldering techniques. Proper use of oscilloscopes and other test equipment is emphasized. (AVC, 2+2) ELTE 130 *DIGITAL CIRCUIT ANALYSIS 4.5 units 6 hours weekly (3 hours lec, 3 hours lec/lab) Course Prerequisite: Completion of ELTE 125. Advisory: Eligibility for ENGL 099, READ 099 and MATH 070. Digital circuit concepts related to small and medium scale integrated circuits. Includes Boolean algebra, basic logic gates, flip flops and more complex combinational logic circuits such as multiplexers, decoders, counters and displays. Laboratory exercises emphasize use of IC specification books, trouble- shooting, and use of test equipment. More advanced soldering techniques are also included. (AVC) ELTE 135 *ANALOG CIRCUIT ANALYSIS 4 units 6 hours weekly Course Prerequisite: Completion of ELTE 125. Advisory: Eligibility for ENGL 099, READ 099 and MATH 070. Covers basic analog devices and circuits related to electronic signal processing. Includes diodes, transistors, and integrated circuits. Applications include power supplies, amplifier circuits, and basic operational amplifier circuits. Use of test equipment and troubleshooting is emphasized. (AVC) ELTE 140 *MICROPROCESSOR SYSTEMS I 2.5 units 4 hours weekly (2 hours lec, 2 hours lab) Course Prerequisite: Completion of ELTE 130 or concurrent enrollment. Advisory: Eligibility for ENGL 099, READ 099 and MATH 070. The internal register set and basic microprocessor instructions are included in this course. Students write small programs to exercise registers and learn the concepts of the hardware/software interface. Basic input and output techniques introduce students to micro- processor controlled systems. (AVC) ELTE 141 *NETWORK ROUTER SYSTEMS I 3 units 5 hours weekly (2 hours lec, 3 hours lab) Advisory: Completion of ELTE 125, and Eligibility for ENGL 099, READ 099 and MATH 070.
