Assigned Problems – Self Assessment
Students usually find midterm #1 the most challenging (I attribute this to being unprepared for the pace) • A formula sheet, posted online, will be available during g the exams ((this is not a memorization course)) • Most problems will be numerical, with a few conceptual questions. • Examples of previous year’s tests will be made available on-line – these are extremely useful practice
Course Outline
• Made available online throughout term; not collected or graded • Sources for questions: – Easy: textbook – Medium: Tutorial material – Hard: quizzes & exams from previous semesters • Sources for solutions: – website (problems from text, text old quizzes/exams) – tutorials – office hours (anything!) 0. 7

To do well ell in this co course: rse:
• Lecture notes (handout slides) will be made available to the class throughout the semester via the Web. • Content will be divided by section. • Handout slides will be incomplete complete on Web • This should NOT affect attendance. There will be problems worked on the board – and we LOVE to use them on exams…

• Attend classes (merely reading the notes will NOT prepare you) Students often find my exams “doable” but long. You will run out of time if you do not manage your time efficiently. Therefore… • PRACTICE! The best practice is OLD EXAMS (textbook problems are too easy – use them as a warm-up). • Attend tutorials – I do not have time to do detailed problems in class. class • Ask questions : use office hours / online forum • Cheaters/plagiarizers beware… I have zero tolerance.

What’s the big deal abo aboutt a transistor?
ECSE – 330 Introduction to Electronics
Intel's first processor ran at 108 kHz.
• 1st transistor – invented in 1947 at Bell Laboratories. • Invented by Brattain and Bardeen. • PNP point-contact germanium transistor. • Operated as a speech amplifier with a power gain of 18. 18
The Intel Core 2 processors (2007) run to about b t 3 GHz. GH If automobile speed had increased similarly over the same period, you could drive from San Francisco to New York in 13 seconds.
