COURSE INFORMATION ON ELNC1631
MODERN ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS
This course is initiated first with a study of the various ANALOG broadcast standards globally with emphasis
on the NTSC system. Complete analysis of the baseband video signal follows with detail given to the
transmission of sync pulses and scanning principles. Operation and circuit theory of television recievers
and video monitors consumes a large portion of the next phase of the course including monochrome and
chroma environments.Brief discussion on image pickup and image display devices follow before magnetic
recording methods are covered. The course then shifts to a DIGITAL theme for VIDEO and AUDIO applications.
Principles of pulse code modulation, A to D, D to A, aliasing and data compression methods are discussed with
applications of Compact Disc Systems, DVD, HDTV and Digital Satellite Systems.
Theory and applications of digital modulation schemes is discussed with the introduction of constellation diagrams.
Practical troubleshooting skills that target to the component level are realized in the lab environment.
