INTEGRATED SENSORS AND SENSING DEVICES

Course objectives

ENG GENERAL The aim of the course is for students to acquire skills for the modeling of integrated sensors and their practical use in sensing devices and systems, according to the flipped learning mode, in which students are teachers and learners at the same time, as well as responsible for and protagonists of the projects they propose to carry out. The course will allow them to understand the functioning of sensors and their applicability in various situations, as well as to understand the importance and practical use of the fundamental units that make up a device, from power supply, to signal acquisition functions, to signal transmission and processing. The use of components currently on the market opens the student a window on the current potential of integrated sensors and the More Than Moore strategy of multifunctional integration in packages and on-chips. SPECIFIC • Knowledge and understanding: to know the main operating models and application specifications of integrated active sensors • Applying knowledge and understanding: be able to identify the implementation problems of a project and propose practical and operational solutions • Making judgements: ability to make appropriate design choices based on specific requests • Communication skills: knowing how to present a work done, working in a team, knowing how to propose and defend a project but also knowing how to listen objectively to the proposals of others. • Learning skills: learn to be co-responsible for the work done in a team, knowing how to make the designed prototype work within the set deadlines.
