Exams
Semester exams will be held on Wednesdays in the evening (7:30 pm to 9:00 pm) in Rathbone 1073. FINAL EXAM will be comprehensive and will be held on Monday, December 15 (11:50 am to 1:40 pm). All exams will be closed book. Relevant formulas and tables will be provided for the exams.
Old sample exams from previous semesters will be made available to the students in the Engineering Copy Center (Fiedler Hall) and the class web site.
Computer-aided Circuit Design
Several circuit design problems will be assigned for this class. You must use PSPICE, which is available on the microcomputer networks in various Computer labs in the engineering complex, for these assignments. Satisfactory completion of these projects is required for passing this course. If the work that you submit is not satisfactory, you will be asked to resubmit the assignment until it is done correctly. The grade given for a project will not be changed upon resubmission.
Homework
Homework will be assigned periodically. They will be collected at the beginning of the class on the due date. Late homework will not be accepted unless prior permission has been obtained. Homework submitted by students must conform to a set of Minimum Standards.
Grade
The grade will be determined on the following basis:
Computer-Aided Circuit Design 100 pts
Home Work 50 pts
Exam # 1 100 pts
Exam # 2 100 pts
Exam # 3 100 pts
Final 150 pts
Total 600 pts
A final total of 90%, 80%, 70%, 60% will assure you a grade of A, B, C, D respectively. However, the grades may drop by a few points depending on the nature of the exams and performance of the class. The exam scores will not be curved on separate basis.
A listserve will be setup for this class. All the students are required to subscribe to this listserve. It will be used for important announcements and other communication relevant to the class.
Office Hours
MWF 11:30 to 12:20 pm or by appointment.
You may see me regarding any difficulty with this course or any other matter during these hours. I will not be available for help during other hours unless you have a time conflict or urgency.
Janaki Kudchadkar (Rathbone 44) will be my Teaching Assistant for this course. She will also be available to help students. I will inform you of her office hours later.

Minimum Standards for Student Papers
Most engineering organizations have internal standards for their drawings and documentation. The purpose of these is to facilitate the exchange of information and to reduce unnecessary work. The following simple standards will apply to all student papers including homework, quizzes, and computer programs.
1.Student’s name, instructor’s name, course title, date, and page number to appear on the top of the first page. Include a title when relevant.
2.Student’s name, date, and page number to appear on all other pages.
3.Cut and trim all computer printouts to proper size.
4.If the pages require stapling, staple in upper left corner.
5.Use engineering paper for all work unless requested otherwise. Padmaster No. 34520 with the faint blue grid makes excellent photocopies. Use one side of the paper only, unless specifically instructed otherwise.
6.Use a straight edge for all straight lines and a logic template for all symbols.
- Work logically and systematically through your problems, show all the important steps. Answers without supporting work are not acceptable.
- Box intermediate and final results giving all dimensions or units.
Example:
9.For design problems, when asked to explain how a particular system operates, you are expected to provide the following:
9.1A block diagram or circuit diagram;
9.2Description of system operation with relevant equations;
9.3Waveforms wherever possible;
9.4Algorithm in English if applicable.
