Aims and Objectives

Electronics

TheoryGiving the student fundamental training in analogue electronics by a pragmatic approach of the course contents, with detailed analysis of electronic circuits.Stimulate the creativity, that is, of course an essential engineer’s quality.

Laboratory workThe laboratory work introduce the students to direct and automatic measurements, to designing and realising electronic circuits

Operating systems

Understand the operating system way of working and its components (process management, memory management, Input-Output management, file systems)

Informatique

The course has for objective the study of combinational logic, sequential logic and microprocessors systems. Microprocessors system will be investigated in their hardware as their software aspect, especially by the study of the « Assembler » language.

Description

Electronic

TheoryResolution of circuits by matrix calculus – many exercises;Detailed analysis: of semiconductor; of basic amplifier configurations with one bipolar or field effect transistor; of bi-transistor stage (differential amplifier, cascode amplifier, Darlington,…); of the operational amplifier with many linear and non-linear applications. Schematic and PCB prototyping

LaboratoryMany application of théorical subject

Operating systems

Internal and external microprocessor architecture : bus-memory-registers-peripherals.Process and threads : process and threads state, user mode and kernel mode, process table, scheduling,...Memory management : relocation and protection, swapping, virtual memory, page replacement algorithms.Input-Output management : drivers, interruptions, traps.File systems : FAT, I-nodes, free space management, file systems examples.Computer boot sequence.

Informatique

Definitions and properties of logical system; Analysis and synthesis of combinational circuit; Study of MSI combinatitional circuits: adders, multiplexers, coders, comparators; Study and uses of flip-flops, registers and counters; Programmable circuits and associated software (ABEL) ; General architecture of microprocessor systems; Study of software and hardware of a microprocessor (80486); Microprocessor programming in « Assembler »language.
