Abstract:
We are developing a sophomore course to serve as a first course in
electrical engineering.
The course focuses on discrete-time systems.
Its goal is to give students an intuitive understanding of
concepts such as sinusoids, frequency domain, sampling, aliasing,
and quantization.
In the laboratory, students build simulations and real-time systems
to test these ideas.
By using a combination of high-level and DSP assembly languages,
the students experiment with a variety of views into the representation,
design, and implementation of systems.
The students are exposed to a digital style of implementation
based on programming both desktop and embedded processors.
