61 - COMPUTER MATHEMATICS II (5 UNITS)
CSU
Prerequisite: Completion of Computer Technology 060 or Electronics
010 with a grade of “C” or better.
This course in computer mathematics covers a review
of algebraic concepts, powers of ten and scientific
notation, metric system, algebraic expressions, algebraic
equations, factoring equations containing fractions,
function notations, graphing, special products and factors,
exponents and radicals, quadratic equations, logarithmic
equations, exponential equations, angles, complex
numbers, triangles, trigonometric functions, solution of
right triangles, trigonometric identities, phasors, complex
operator, phasor algebra and applications of math to
electronics.
64 - COMPUTER ELECTRONICS AND
LABORATORY (4 UNITS) CSU
Prerequisite: Completion of Computer Technology 054 with a grade
of “C” or better.
This course covers (through lecture, discussion, and
laboratory) semiconductor devices and their application
to computer circuits with emphasis on linear circuits,
including heat sink theory and evaluation, and the analysis
of rectifier and amplifier circuits (including H-Parameters).
Methods of testing and troubleshooting these devices are
evaluated using standard lab test equipment, (curve tracers,
LCR bridge, x-y plotter and AC voltmeters). In addition,
technical report writing is emphasized on concepts learned
through experimentation.
68 - MICRO INTEGRATED CIRCUITS AND
LABORATORY (4 UNITS) CSU
Prerequisite: Completion of Computer Technology 064 with a grade
of “C” or better.
This course concerns the linear design and applications
(power supply regulation, low frequency amplifiers,
power amplifiers, comparators and active filters) of
transistor and integrated circuit devices in the related
fields of computers and data communications. This is
a discussion/demonstration course with emphasis on
application methods of design. A series of projects from the
indicated applications are assigned as laboratory projects.
In addition, technical report writing, emphasizing design
and data evaluation is an integral part of the course.
70 - STORAGE PRINCIPLES AND DEVICES AND
LABORATORY (4 UNITS) CSU
Prerequisite: Completion of Computer Technology 056 or Computer
Technology 064 with a grade of “C” or better.
This course is an introduction to the study of pulse
generating circuits as applied to digital computers and
other electronic timing circuits. Typical circuits to be
investigated are multivibrators, blocking oscillators,
limiters, clippers, counters, and Schmitt triggers. Technical
report writing emphasizing design and data evaluation is
an integral part of this course.
73 - COMPUTER PROJECTS (2 UNITS) CSU
Prerequisite: Completion of Computer Technology 056 with a grade
of “C” or better.
With instructor guidance, the student designs, evaluates,
and assembles project involving digital computers and/
or computer programming. Course emphasizes student
research and originality.
74 - A+ CERTIFICATION PREPARATION/INTRO
TO COMPUTER REPAIR I (4 UNITS) RPT 3
This course introduces personal computer (PC), hardware
operating system characteristics and basic troubleshooting/
repair techniques. Students will develop the ability to
disassemble/assemble an operational PC, perform system
upgrades, learn and perform reformatting and partitioning
of HDDs’, and identify/replace malfunctioning hardware
and peripheral devices. This is the first course for preparing
students for A+ certification.
76 - A+ CERTIFICATION PREPARATION/INTRO
TO COMPUTER REPAIR II (4 UNITS) RPT 3
Prerequisite: Completion of Computer Technology 074 with a grade
of “C” or better.
This course emphasizes hands-on training through a
3-hour lecture and a 3-hour laboratory session. Students
are introduced to current operating systems utilized on
personal computers (PCs) and portable PCs. Windows
98, 2000 and NT are evaluated in terms of their function,
structure, operation and file management characteristics.
Students learn techniques for installation, configuration,
memory management and upgrading PCs. Diagnosing and
troubleshooting operating systems is stressed in assigned
lab projects. Students learn to set up basic networking
systems, preventative maintenance practices and follow
standard safety practices. Initial set up procedures for
monitors and printers will be presented, in addition to
troubleshooting and maintenance on these devices.
78 - INTRODUCTION TO NETWORK+ (4 UNITS)
RPT 3
Recommended Prerequisite: Completion of Computer Technology 076
with a grade of “C” or better.
This course is structured to provide Networking
fundamentals outlined by COMPTIA, in order to prepare
students to become NETWORK + Certified. Topics
presented during lectures/labs include: Networking
