Switched capacitors: a bridge between analog and digital SP

Signal processing is a rich discipline. So prodigious that getting into its world is quite a challenge. So vast that almost all areas of the Electrical Engineer curricula play a role. Switched capacitor theory is one of them. We managed to introduce digital filter concepts from an analog signal processing prospective. Laboratory assignments take into practice sampling effects and IIR filter design issues, such as analog to digital transformers or cascade realizations. Distortion and noise becomes allies to make the student perception sharper. A PCB design that meets the specifications given turns into an accomplished challenge. That means confidence to keep on track.
