Learning objectives
The course aims to introduce students to the analysis, acquisition, and processing of signals relevant to medicine and surgery, providing students with the fundamental notions regarding transforming electrical signals into computerized digital data.
This teaching will begin with introducing signals and their main characteristics, taking up some concepts from Fourier and Laplace analysis. A necessary introduction to the study of electrical networks will then be presented, taking up the main concepts developed in the Physics course. Analog electronics will be presented in the context of the sensors necessary for acquiring biological and biomechanical data with reference to the main electronic components. The module will be based on simulations of the behavior of analog circuits connected to patients and on some laboratory tests.
Students will also be provided with the main elements of measurement theory.
The teaching will continue by introducing students to the main characteristics of digital electronic circuits. After the necessary introduction to the operation and analysis of digital electronics, the primary circuits will be covered, from analog-digital conversion to digital memories and calculation units, following the various phases of signal and data processing.
Examination Methods
To pass the exam, the student will have to take a written test relating to the design of an analog circuit and a digital circuit containing also theoretical questions. To pass the test you must obtain a score of at least 18/30.
Evaluation criteria
At the end of the course, the student will have to demonstrate: - have understood the functioning of the basic analog schemes necessary for medical sensors - know how to use the main design and simulation tools and know how to evaluate the quality of the measurements - have understood the functioning of the components that manage the conversion of signals into data - know how to use the main design and simulation tools in the field of digital electronics - have the skills to continue studies independently in the field of analog and digital biomedical electronics
