CRN	Type	Section	Time	Day	Location	Instructor	Section Details
52711	Laboratory Lecture	HK HK	ARRANGED 11:00AM -11:50AM	n.a. T	Location Pending 4070 Electrical & Computer Eng Bldg	Hanumolu, P Kumar, R Younis, M Hanumolu, P Kumar, R Younis, M	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/18/22-05/04/22 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Advanced VLSI System Design Section Info: Student teams will design and fabricate their own digital, analog, or mixed-signal chip using modern electronic design automation tools and industry best practices. In this project-based course, each team will propose a design in the form of specifications, write a Verilog (or equivalent) and/or a synthesizable C++ (or equivalent) model for the chip or its components, design schematics, create testing/debug strategy, and perform layout, integration, and verification of the chip before taping it out. The design files for fully functional designs will be sent for fabrication at the end of the semester. Students will have an opportunity to test their devices as individual study when the chips come back from the foundry. We will be requiring one of the team members to commit to enroll in independent study to test the chips. Roughly nine to eleven hours of lab work is expected per week. The main objective of the lab work, primarily to be performed outside of a physical lab, is to put together a fully functional complex integrated circuit. To this end, the labs will entail exercises in the design, layout, parasitic extraction, and verification of circuits designed in an advanced CMOS process. Specific examples include schematic capture, netlist generation, and simulation using state-of-the-art simulation tools. The lab work will be supplemented by one hour of lecture that will cover relevant concepts (see Topic List). In addition, students are expected to go through video tutorials and tool documentation after every lecture. Overall, the course will require a time commitment of 13-15 hours per week. Prerequisites: Some prior experience with hardware design and layout will be necessary. ECE411 or ECE343 or ECE425 or ECE511 or ECE482 or ECE483 or ECE498JZ can serve as a pre-requisite.
69589	Lecture	KF3	9:30AM -10:50AM	TR	3081 Electrical & Computer Eng Bldg	Fang, K	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/18/22-05/04/22 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Quantum Optics & Devices Section Info: Quantum Optics and Quantum Devices. This course is planned to prepare ECE students for the advent of quantum technology era with the essential physics and device knowledge. The focus of the course is on the quantum optical sector of the broader field of quantum information and quantum computing. It covers main topics in quantum optics, basic quantum information protocols and their implementation using quantum optics, and representative quantum device architectures, not limited to photonics, for quantum information processing. Prerequisites: ECE 329/350, PHY 214 or ECE 487
