Contributions: This paper presents an innovative course curriculum designed to bridge the gap between electric circuit knowledge and control engineering principles. The curriculum emphasizes hands-on learning through op-amp circuit design projects, fostering a deeper understanding of both theoretical concepts and practical applications. Background: Traditional educational approaches often treat electric circuits and control systems as separate disciplines, hindering students' ability to grasp the interconnectedness of these fields. This disconnect can impede the holistic understanding required for effective circuit design and feedback control system development. Intended Outcomes: The proposed course aims to equip students with a comprehensive understanding of op-amp circuit design principles, proficiency in analyzing and optimizing frequency responses and bandwidth using techniques like zero-pole placement, the ability to translate theoretical knowledge into practical applications in industrial settings, and a stronger appreciation for the synergistic relationship between electric circuits and control engineering. Application Design:The course features a series of three illustrative examples that progressively introduce students to selecting resistor and capacitor values to achieve desired DC gains and frequency responses, analyzing feedback loops using open-loop transfer functions and zero-pole placement techniques for bandwidth optimization, and designing controller architectures for industrial applications by applying the principles learned in previous exercises. Findings: Through student engagement and project implementation, the course demonstrates a significant improvement in students' understanding of both circuit design and control engineering concepts. The hands-on approach fosters deeper comprehension, practical skills, and a more integrated perspective on these interconnected disciplines.
