Coli courtesy of shardcore.org9EE40 Summer 2010HugEven if we switch from MOS transistors…•Integrated Circuits will be an important technology for a long time•Designing and building these circuits requires knowledge in many fields–Circuit analysis–Semiconductor physics–Chemistry–Computer microarchitecture–Signal processing–And many many more…10EE40 Summer 2010HugEE 40 Course OverviewEECS 40:•One of five EECS core courses (with 20, 61A, 61B, and 61C) introduces “hardware” side of EECS prerequisite for EE105, EE130, EE141, EE150•Prerequisites: Math 1B, Physics 7BCourse content: •Electronic circuits•Some very basic semiconductor physics•Integrated-circuit devices and technology11EE40 Summer 2010HugEE40Circuit ModelingDevice ResponseCircuit Input/Output ResponseEE40Device ModelingSiliconCopperOther MaterialsEE105, EE13012EE40 Summer 2010HugCore EECS Courses (Computer Centric View)Combinational and Sequential LogicIntegrated CircuitsComputer ProgramsTransistors and other devicesSilicon and other materialsComputersCircuit models61A/BState machinesEE40CS61CCS61CEE40 Network ModelsCS61CBuildableArtifacts EE2013EE40 Summer 2010HugCourse Logistics14EE40 Summer 2010HugImportant Dates•Two or three in-class midterms–July 9th (18 days from now)–July 28th –August 11th (if you guys vote to do this)•One comprehensive final–August 13th •July 2 – must be registered for course•June 25th – last day to drop for a refund•July 30th – last day to drop for no refund15EE40 Summer 2010HugGrades•Reading Assignments (5%)•HW (20%)–Lowest HW dropped–One late homework allowed•Midterm and Final (20%, 20%, 20%)–If we do 3 midterms, lowest dropped•Labs (15%)–Six labs–Two lab projects•2nd project is open ended, get started early if you want to do something crazy16EE40 Summer 2010HugReading Assignments•Reading assignments due before class–Easy problems to make sure you got at least something out of the reading–Credit/No Credit grading–No late submissions allowed–Lowest two dropped–Submit on bspace (bspace.berkeley.edu)17EE40 Summer 2010HugHomeworks•Homeworks due on either Tuesdays or Fridays•Must be in the HW box, 240 Cory by 5 PM•Problems graded on a 0,1,2,3 basis–You do not get 1 point for writing the problem down•Will be returned in lecture–Also available during my office hours•On the top page, right top corner, write your name (in the form: Last Name, First Name)•Fine to discuss problems with others but ALL WORK SHOULD BE YOUR OWN18EE40 Summer 2010HugHomework Philosophy•Homework is where the real learning happens, similar to practicing a musical instrument•My homeworks are for a grade so that if you perform poorly on midterms, it is evidence of what you’ve accomplished outside of a testing environment•Copying homework answers is tempting, but:–It is an unfair representation of your accomplishments–You will be unprepared for midterms19EE40 Summer 2010HugLabs•Labs start NEXT week•2 labs per week, 3 hours each•Labs–50% on Prelab and 50% on Report•Do prelabs BEFORE the lab–You must complete the prelab section before going to the lab. The prelabs are checked by the GSIs at the beginning of each session. If prelabs are completed during the lab sessions, it is considered late and 50% will be deducted•Lab reports are due exactly one week after your lab is completed•Some make up labs will be scheduled20EE40
