ECE 498 class schedule data for spring 2023
CRN	Type	Section	Time	Day	Location	Instructor	Section Details
33961	Lecture	AB3	2:00PM -3:20PM	TR	2017 Electrical & Computer Eng Bldg	Banerjee, A	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/17/23-05/03/23 Credit: 3 hours Section Title: Power Electronics Control Section Info: This course aims to educate students in the detailed modeling, average-value modeling, thermal considerations, and control design of power electronic converters. Part 1 addresses energy storage and switch components and modeling techniques in major classes of power converters. Detailed and average-value modeling and control concepts are presented. Part 2 focuses on PWM strategies, controller designs, and their control impact. Part 3 considers grid-tied applications and nonlinear control methods for power converters. Material on transient thermal models will connect the impact of controls on thermal effects. The course includes a final project for experience in the design, control, and simulation of power converters for an electric vehicle application. Prerequisites: ECE 464 (required) and ECE 486 (recommended).
69589	Lecture	KF3	9:30AM -10:50AM	TR	3081 Electrical & Computer Eng Bldg	Fang, K	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/17/23-05/03/23 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
70829	Lecture	KF4	9:30AM -10:50AM	TR	3081 Electrical & Computer Eng Bldg	Fang, K	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/17/23-05/03/23 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Quantum Optics & Devices Section Info: Quantum Optics and Quantum Devices.

48559	Laboratory Lecture	SJP SJP	ARRANGED 12:30PM -1:50PM	n.a. TR	Location Pending 3015 Electrical & Computer Eng Bldg	Patel, S Patel, S	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/17/23-05/03/23 Credit: 4 hours Section Title: Accelerator Architectures Section Info: Specialized, accelerator chip architectures are an important category of computing devices due to the significant performance/power/area advantage they bring over general purpose architectures. Accelerator architectures are optimized for performance, power, energy or cost for the needs of a specific class of applications, specialized for their computational needs. Examples include graphics processing unit (GPU) architectures, ML accelerators, digital signal processors, and mobile processors. This course will explore various design principles for families of accelerator architectures, examining implications on computing and dataflow, parallelism, memory hierarchies, interconnects, and software. There will be a team-oriented design project in which teams build their own accelerator architecture in a design language such as System Verilog following an ASIC-like flow for an open RISC-V core for a class of workloads of their choosing. Prerequisites: ECE 411 or CS 433, experience with System Verilog
