Learning Goals
The term Electronic Design Automation (EDA) is used to describe a set of tools available for the automated design of analog, digital or mixed electronic circuits.
It is expected that the students acquire the necessary competences to use those tools for the design of electronic circuits. At the end of this course, the students should be able to develop printed board circuits and integrated circuits. They should also be able to design test electronic systems.

Teaching Methods
- Theoretical classes and lectures.
- Laboratory projects.
Evaluation: Consists on the development of a mixed electronic system. This development contains all the different phases of the electronic design, ending with the physical implementation of the developed circuit.
