The focus of this course is on the analysis and design of the analog parts of integrated circuits. These are the difficult, but most interesting parts of the IC's and control the leading edge products like modems and wireless communications products. Most ``high-tech'' products and projects depend on ICs, and a good understanding of the basic working and capabilities is crucial for every engineer. Because of this, you may consider taking EECS 105 even if you are not a ``core IC person'', but rather specialize in a field that depends on ICs indirectly, such as communications, controls, or computers.
INSTRUCTORS
COMMUNICATION VIA EMAIL AND NEWSGROUPSThe best way to ask a question is via the newsgroup, ucb.class.ee105. Professor Spanos and the TAs will make it a life mission to check the newsgroup vigilantly to answer questions. It aids us as well because by answering questions publically on the newsgroup allows us to answer them for the whole class and not individually. If you post and don't get a quick response, please go ahead and email us via the links above. Instructions for using newsgroups at Berkeley is available for Unix machines (via trn) here, for PCs (via Outlook Express) here, and for Macs (via NewsWatcher) here.Most web browsers today will simply let you click the link and open the correct newsgroup as well.
