All equipment, installations, circuits and other electrical and electronic systems in commercial, power and industrial sector need drawings for their manufacturing, installation, operation and maintenance. A technician working in design and shop floor must possess the skill of reading, interpreting different drawings and simulating electrical and electronics circuit for most of the activities. With the evolution of various computer software’s the role of earlier draftsman is now taken over by Computer software. The Computer Aided Drawing (CAD) and simulation (MATLAB/SIMULINK, PSpice, MULTISIM) software will be used to perform various practical exercises in this course. This will enable the students to become competent for working in the fast growing information technology environment by enhancing their computer aided drawing, designing and simulating skills in the field of electrical and electronics engineering.

The course content should be taught and implemented with the aim to develop different types of skills so that students are able to acquire following competency:

  • Draw/simulate electrical and electronics circuit using software.

The theory should be taught and practical should be carried out in such a manner that students are able to acquire different learning outcomes in cognitive, psychomotor and affective domain to demonstrate following course outcomes.
i. Use various symbols and notations in electrical and electronics engineering drawings.
ii. Interpret drawings, draw interferences and workout other technical details.
iii. Draw various electrical and electronics circuits according to standard practices using CAD software.
iv. Simulate/test simple electrical and electronics circuits using Simulation software
v. Prepare a PCB for a given mini project.

i. Open Source Softwares preferred.
ii. AutoCAD
iii. Work bench
iv. PSIM
v. SPICE (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis)……..
vi. Orcad for pcb design…..
vii. Circuit maker
viii. Multi-Sim
