What Analogue Electronics II covers

Analogue Electronics II builds on transistor basics in Biomedical Engineering Level 6, taking you from amplifiers to signal generators, filters and opto-electronics. In the first outcome you build amplifier circuits, starting from an introduction to transistors, then constructing and testing the circuits. The second outcome covers signal generators: assembling components, tools and equipment, then constructing and testing generator circuits. Signal filter circuits follow, with filter types, construction and testing. The last outcome applies opto-electronics, including opto-electronic devices, liquid crystal displays, LASERs and MASERs, and their applications.
