Design of low-voltage operational amplifier
Sysel, Jan ; Šteffan, Pavel (referee) ; Khateb, Fabian (advisor)
This work deals with the design of operational amplifier with extremely low supply voltage and low power consumption. In the theoretical part is presented theory dealing with the structure and design of operational amplifier. In the following part are desribed design methods suitable for realization of low-voltage circuits. In the next part were designed two operational amplifiers using low-voltage design methods. Properties of these operational amplifiers were then tested by simulations.

Electronic game Logic
Zemanová, Renata ; Šteffan, Pavel (referee) ; Háze, Jiří (advisor)
The goal of this bachelor thesis is to design and manufacture an Electronic game Logic. This electronic game should look like the board game and also respect the game’s rules. The electronic game is designed as one PCB that contains control electronics and play units. The functional PCB containing all electronics was manufactured. The game was programmed, and the final version was placed in a designed case. The Electronic game Logic also allows the player to set game mode options.

Battery management system for Formula Student
Macko, Maroš ; Bohrn, Marek (referee) ; Šteffan, Pavel (advisor)
This thesis is focused on battery management for Formula Student monopost. Part of the work is the design and implementation of this monitoring system. The system uses a distributed topology, is divided into the main subsystem and subordinate subsystems. The main subsystem and the selection of suitable components are described. Furthermore, subordinate subsystems are designed, and the fundamentals of battery voltage and temperature measurement are explained. Control firmware is implemented and it is able to communicate with the rest of the car. All systems were tested and they comply with the rules of the Formula Student competition.

One-way serial laser communication over longer distances
Valent, Adam ; Šteffan, Pavel (referee) ; Háze, Jiří (advisor)
The subject of this thesis is the construction of one-way communication device. This device consists of the transmitter and the receiver, both of which are connected to its respective computer via USB interface. This device allows sending UTF-8 characters or files from one computer to another. Both computers are running a graphical user interface program. The core of a transmitter is a digital signal modulating laser diode. The receiver is made of photovoltaic panel with a resonance circuit and an amplifier. Communication between the electronics and the computer is driven by microcontrollers. Received messages are verified with one of multiple error detection algorithms, which can be selected by user in the utility program.

Device for automated testing of gas boiler controllers
Kuřímský, Lukáš ; Háze, Jiří (referee) ; Šteffan, Pavel (advisor)
This diploma thesis deals with the design and implementation of a computer-controlled device for testing gas boiler control units, especially in the development phase. The reason for creating a test facility is the inadequacy of older test systems and the automation of existing testing. The test device in development consists of individual different cards. Each of the cards inserted into the motherboard performs its function in the system. Each of the cards has a special functionality which simulates the real conditions of the developed product. The basis of most cards is a microcontroller with a Cortex-M core, which communicates with the connected computer using the MODBUS protocol on the RS-485 communication interface. All cards on the bus are connected in parallel and behaves as a SLAVE, while the computer behaves as a MASTER and requests data or sends commands to the cards. The cards represent status switches (switching sensors), resistance and analog temperature sensors, PWM inputs and outputs (for simulation of feedback pumps or flow meters with pulse output). The cards also include a flame simulator, which reliably simulates the electrical properties of the flame and at the same time acts as a fan simulator. The input of the control unit is taken care of by the input card, which is intended for digital detection of the voltage presence in the range of 5 to 230 V DC and AC. Simultaneously, a card for connecting the power supply at zero voltage and disconnecting at zero current is created to supply the tested device with alternating voltage. A schematic diagram was designed or simulated for each card, then the function was verified and on this basis the whole card was created, including the microcontroller firmware. The most suitable solution and function of each card is carefully described and evaluated. All the requirements of the assignment within the work were met and the whole test equipment was manufactured and verified in four versions. In the future, the device is ready for the implementation of an automatic flame simulator and other improvements of individual module cards.

Electronic skylight
Coufal, Martin ; Šteffan, Pavel (referee) ; Boušek, Jaroslav (advisor)
Theoretical part of this thesis describes LEDs and other circuitry used for LED light design. LED light is designed, manufactured and put into operation. This thesis examines possibilities of measuring exterior light and its key parameters. The device uses two sets of LEDs – warm white and cold white to create light with parameters dependent on exterior light. LEDs are driven by constant current sources that are designed, manufactured and examined in this thesis. The device is microprocessor-controlled, which allows to switch between multiple modes of operation. Flyback SMPS is used to power the microcontroller.
