The Circuit and System Laboratory has a long tradition associated with the foundation of the Department of Circuit Theory. Its activity is primarily focused on the development of new unconventional methods in the area of the analysis and synthesis of analogue continuously and discrete-working circuits.
Above all, it is concerned with the area of selective circuits - filters, their synthesis (design) and analysis. Their implementation is carried out both by "classical" procedures - by means of continuously working circuits with modern components (e.g., with OTA amplifiers, conveyors for current-mode circuits), and by discrete-working circuits, i.e., switched-capacitor circuits or with utilizing modern components - switched-current circuits.
In cooperation with companies, we develop various equipments and circuits for controlling, measuring, and eventually other demands for technological processes. Other cooperation was established in the area of the research and development of new, particularly analogue circuits with low power consumption and low supply voltage.
Within the frame of research activities, the members of this laboratory deal with the creation of new libraries for the mathematical program Maple™ and their applications in engineering practise.
The Syntfil library intended for electrical filter design is ranked among the most important developed libraries. This library was included in the MapleConnect™ program of the Maplesoft™ company, which provides its distribution. Research results are thoroughly applied even in teaching. Special interactive www applications for electrical filter design and an electrical and electronical circuit analysis were developed for the modernization of teaching, other applications are under development.
Students both in the bachelor study program and in the master study program can participate in our activities. Students in the doctoral study program are also welcomed; they can concentrate on research parts of the tasks.
