Learning objectives
Starting from introduction to electrical network analysis, the course aims to provide students with the fundamental notions of analog and digital electronics useful for understanding how sensors and medical devices work. At the end of the course, the student will be able to understand the operation of traditional analog and digital circuit diagrams, to know and measure the main static and dynamic performance parameters and to be able to use the basic elements of main specification languages and automatic design and simulation tools. The students will also have to demonstrate that they have the necessary skills to continue their studies independently in the field of analog and digital electronics.

In order to be successful in acquiring the course contents, at the beginning the student shall be very confident with the following concepts:
- Mathematics: basic notions; derivatives and integrals; differential equations.
- Physics: basics of mechanics and electricity.

Didactic methods
Students are strongly advised to attend lectures, which include explaining the theory and carrying out exercises on the analysis of simple electrical circuits and electronic circuits. For the study, students are invited to use the course materials provided by the lecturers and to solve the exercises they propose. Simulation activities of electrical and electronic circuits are also organized by means of LTSPICE.
Learning assessment procedures
The assessment of preparation is carried out through two written tests, one for the ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS section of the course, the other for the ELECTRONICS section. The duration of each test is 2 hours.
ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS
Students are proposed a written test consisting of two open questions on the content of the course (with the aim of verifying the level of theoretical knowledge) and an exercise about the analysis of an electrical circuit (with the aim of verifying the problem solving skills). The duration of the written test is 2 hours. A maximum score of 10 is assigned to each question, while a maximum score of 11 is assigned to the solution of the electrical circuit. If the written test is evaluated at least 15/30, with a score of at least 4 on the exercise, the assessment can be employed for the final evaluation. If the test is graded at least 18/30 then the test for this section of the course is passed.
ELECTRONICS
The (written) test for this section of the course is made up of 5 questions, of which 2 are open questions or multiple-choice questions, and 3 in the form of an exercise on the analysis or synthesis of a digital circuit / system. The maximum score attributed to each question is indicated in the text. If the test for this section of the course is graded at least 15/30, then the score can be considered for the final score. If the test is graded at least 18/30 then the test for this section of the course is passed.
Evaluation criteria
To pass the exam, the score assigned to each test must be at least 15/30, with a score of at least 4/30 in the exercise on electrical circuits. In addition, the score obtained in each test is valid only until the start of the lectures of the related part of the course in the following academic year.
Criteria for the composition of the final grade
The final mark is obtained as the arithmetic average of the scores assigned to the two modules, rounded to the nearest integer. The exam is passed if this average is at least equal to 18/30.

Type D and Type F activities
Le attività formative di tipologia D sono a scelta dello studente, quelle di tipologia F sono ulteriori conoscenze utili all’inserimento nel mondo del lavoro (tirocini, competenze trasversali, project works, ecc.). In base al Regolamento Didattico del Corso, alcune attività possono essere scelte e inserite autonomamente a libretto, altre devono essere approvate da apposita commissione per verificarne la coerenza con il piano di studio. Le attività formative di tipologia D o F possono essere ricoperte dalle seguenti attività.
1. Insegnamenti impartiti presso l'Università di Verona
Comprendono gli insegnamenti sotto riportati e/o nel Catalogo degli insegnamenti (che può essere filtrato anche per lingua di erogazione tramite la Ricerca avanzata).
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: se l'insegnamento è compreso tra quelli sottoelencati, lo studente può inserirlo autonomamente durante il periodo in cui il piano di studi è aperto; in caso contrario, lo studente deve fare richiesta alla Segreteria, inviando a carriere.scienze@ateneo.univr.it il modulo nel periodo indicato.
2. Attestato o equipollenza linguistica CLA
Oltre a quelle richieste dal piano di studi, per gli immatricolati A.A. 2021/2022 e A.A. 2022/2023 vengono riconosciute:
- Lingua inglese: vengono riconosciuti 3 CFU per ogni livello di competenza superiore a quello richiesto dal corso di studio (se non già riconosciuto nel ciclo di studi precedente).
- Altre lingue e italiano per stranieri: vengono riconosciuti 3 CFU per ogni livello di competenza a partire da A2 (se non già riconosciuto nel ciclo di studi precedente).
Tali cfu saranno riconosciuti, fino ad un massimo di 3 cfu complessivi, di tipologia D. Solo nel caso in cui la data di acquisizione della certificazione sia precedente al 27/10/2023 (data della delibera del Collegio didattico di Ingegneria dell'Informazione) potranno essere riconosciuti un massimo di 6 CFU, come precedentemente previsto. Ulteriori crediti a scelta per conoscenze linguistiche potranno essere riconosciuti solo se coerenti con il progetto formativo dello studente e se adeguatamente motivati.
Per gli immatricolati A.A. 2023/2024 i crediti per certificazioni linguistiche ulteriori a quelle previste dal piano didattico vengono riconosciuti come crediti sovrannumerari taf D.
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: richiedere l’attestato o l'equipollenza al CLA e inviarlo alla Segreteria Studenti - Carriere per l’inserimento dell’esame in carriera, tramite mail: carriere.scienze@ateneo.univr.it
3. Competenze trasversali
Scopri i percorsi formativi promossi dal TALC - Teaching and learning center dell'Ateneo, destinati agli studenti regolarmente iscritti all'anno accademico di erogazione del corso https://talc.univr.it/it/competenze-trasversali
Modalità di inserimento a libretto: non è previsto l'inserimento dell'insegnamento nel piano di studi. Solo in seguito all'ottenimento dell'Open Badge verranno automaticamente convalidati i CFU a libretto. La registrazione dei CFU in carriera non è istantanea, ma ci saranno da attendere dei tempi tecnici.
4. Periodo di stage/tirocinio
Oltre ai CFU previsti dal piano di studi (verificare attentamente quanto indicato sul Regolamento Didattico): qui il VADEMECUM DELLE ATTIVITÀ DI TIROCINIO (indirizzo email della Commissione tirocini: tirocini-ismp@ateneo.univr.it ); qui la relativa pagina informativa (con link a moodle); qui informazioni su come attivarlo.

News for students
There you will find information, resources and services useful during your time at the University (Student’s exam record, your study plan on ESSE3, Distance Learning courses, university email account, office forms, administrative procedures, etc.). You can log into MyUnivr with your GIA login details: only in this way will you be able to receive notification of all the notices from your teachers and your secretariat via email and also via the Univr app.
Attendance modes and venues
The inter-university nature of the course of study lies in the cooperation of the three universities in the provision of faculty. Therefore, teaching delivery takes place at the administrative and teaching site in Verona and not in the partner universities. This means that it is not possible to attend this bachelor's degree program in the University of Trento or Modena-Reggio Emilia; however, it is possible to use the study spaces of the partner universities, thanks to the agreement between them.
As stated in the Didactic Regulations, course attendance is not mandatory.
Part-time enrolment is permitted. Find out more on the Part-time enrolment possibilities page.
The course's teaching activities take place in the Science and Engineering area, which consists of the buildings of Ca‘ Vignal 1, Ca’ Vignal 2, Ca' Vignal 3 and Piramide, located in the Borgo Roma campus.
Lectures are held in the classrooms of Ca‘ Vignal 1, Ca’ Vignal 2 and Ca' Vignal 3, while practical exercises take place in the teaching laboratories dedicated to the various activities.
