Announcements, Updates, and Pertinent Material
- (10/28) Campus closed today at 2pm. No lecture or office hours. HW#8 due date moved to Monday, Nov. 2. Enjoy the snow!
- Midterm Exam updates
- (10/18) Problem 3.(a): Expression for P_cond should include inductor winding resistance R_L. Updated the exam to read "in terms of appropriate circuit parameters" instead of the list in the version posted on Friday.
- (10/16) Information for CAETE students on the midterm exam: E-mail sent to CAETE e-mail list. (posted for reference, since the CAETE e-mail list uses Colorado.EDU addresses that may not be used by some students)
- (9/22) For HW#4, Grad problem 4.8, see notes added on HW#4 page. The converter is driven with non-sychronous switching.
- (9/18) Unfortunately, we had some problems with the computer during pre-recording of Lecture #12. As a result, we do not have the online Lecture #12 in the normal "tegrity" session format and it is not linked on the tegrity website. A low resolution video and the annotated PDF slides from lecture are both available on the class Schedule website.

(1) I will have a graduate student in my office during my normal office hours on Wed and Thurs to help with HW #4.
(2) HW #4 is still due on Sept. 25, as scheduled. You can turn it in during class as usual or you can turn it in to the main ECE office front desk (ECEE 1B55) by 4pm, Friday, Sept. 25.
(3) I will be pre-recording the Wed & Fri lectures. My recorded lectures will be played in-class during the normal class times. You can attend the normal lectures and/or view the lectures online.
