Abstract

This paper presents some of the techniques used at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth to introduce analog microelectronic system design to undergraduate electrical engineering students. The following paper discusses a wide range of assignments that attempt to address student´s varied learning styles. These assignments not only take the form of traditional homework, but also include computer aided design and layout projects, in-class group problem solving and laboratory measurements
