This course is the second part of a two semester project that is started in E&C-Eng 688F. The project can be design, experimental, simulation, or theoretical. The overall project grade is based on the project proposal, a final report, and a final presentation.

Students must have taken E&C-ENG 688F in order to enroll in this course.

Modern techniques for synthesis and verification of digital systems. Topics in synthesis cover high-level synthesis, decision diagrams, multi-level logic and sequential optimization. Topics in verification include symbolic techniques, combinational and sequential equivalence checking, and functional test generation. Open to Graduate Students only. Recommended Prerequisites in the following: "Undergraduate courses in digital logic design and hardware organization"

Theory and applications of modern optoelectronic components such as waveguides and optical fibers, photodetectors, light emitting diodes, and semiconductor lasers. Emphasis on the physics and operating characteristics of optoelectronic semiconductor devices. Prerequisite: E&C-ENG 344.

Topics include standard circuit building blocks such as current mirrors, voltage references, single stage amplifier topologies, differential pairs. Device models, bias choices, temperature effects, the body effect, and mismatch. Op-amp and OTA design as well as frequency response, noise analysis, stability, and compensation. The course will include readings in Filter Design, Common Mode Feedback, and Distortion. A design project required, which can be related to the student's research or possibly another advanced E&C-ENG course such as RF systems, biology, or communications.

This course covers the basics of analog integrated circuit design. Topics include standard circuit building blocks such as current mirrors, voltage references, single stage amplifier topologies, differential pairs. Device models, bias choices, temperature effects, the body effect, and mismatch. Op-amp and OTA design as well as frequency response, stability, and compensation. Noise analysis is applied to various circuit configurations. More complex topics will be discussed if time permits.

This course is part of the ECE department's DP123 initiative: Design Projects for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Year ECE Students. It enables ECE students to design and build hardware and software systems before the senior design project (SDP). Most of the projects are team-based. The projects are guided from concept to final design by the course instructors as well as by ECE seniors acting as project mentors (enrolled in E&C-ENG 497DP). DP123 projects are built in M5, the academic makerspace for ECE undergraduates.
