Abstract :
I attended the University of California (UC), Berkeley, as an electrical engineering student in the 1968–1973 time frame. While I was there, I took the EE105 and EE141 classes on circuit design. Don Pederson was the professor for EE141, and Bill Jackson, a working engineer from the lab up the hill, was a lecturer for EE105. As part of the process, I was privileged to be part of the guinea pig class that was given homework assignments to use a program being worked on by Larry Nagel.
