M. Cahay's office hours (Room ERC 646): Thursday 1-2p.m

TA: Nikhil Bhandari, email: nikhil.k.bhandari@gmail.com
Office hours: TBA, Room: 630 Rhodes

Ask TA first about grading of homeworks if you have questions about your grade.
If issue cannot be resolved, come and see me.



Form a team of no more than 3 people which you will keep for the rest of the quarter and send me those names as well as to the TA with corresponding email addresses no later than Monday Jan. 9th.

YOU MUST NOT FORGET TO WRITE THE NAMES OF ALL TEAM MEMBERS FOR EACH HWK/PROJECT
YOU MUST STAPPLE YOUR HOMEWORK OR THE TA WILL TAKE 10 POINTS OFF.

There will be a 10 min quiz at the end of lecture on Tuesday Jan.17th on material similar to hwk 2.
Solution to Quiz1 quiz1sol.pdf


There will be a 10 min quiz at the end of lecture on Monday Jan.23rd. You will have to make a Bode plot of the phase of a transfer function. Make sure to bring a ruler to make nice straightlines on your plot.

Example test for preparation for Test 1.
Preptest1.pdf


The first test will be on Friday January 27, 2012 in class. It will be on the four powerpoint presentations of Chapter 9 and the corresponding homeworks. You will have to make some Bode plots. Use pens or pencils of different color to show the intermediate diagrams. Make sure to use a ruler to make nice straightlines to show the frequency dependence. You must also label the slopes of the different portion of the final magnitude and phase diagrams (i.e., + or - 20 or 40 dB/dec or + or - 90 degree/decade and so on...).

Final well be on Wednesday March 14, 2012 from 8.00-10a.m.
Example test for final.
The question on the oscillator on pages 12-13 is tough to read as pointed out by one of you but is the same as hwk 15. Also in the question on pages 7 and 8, the gmv_pi cannot ve shoeted when you short v2 since it is a voltage dependent source which depends on the voltage across r_pi which is not zero. prepfinal.pdf

Question which will be on your final but with 10 choices in a different order
