Policies

• No late work accepted. If you can't make lecture (for whatever reason) then email a PDF of your hw to the TA for grading before the start of the lecture (if the grader receives after start of lecture then your hw won't be graded). Of course you can also always give your hw to another student to turn in for you too. 

• The final exam will not be returned at the end of the semester, not even temporarily for you to review.

• Cheating or plagiarism will result in an automatic F grade in the course (so do your own work!)

• Email questions should be sent to the CMOSedu Google group at CMOSedu@googlegroups.com.

Course Outcomes

After completing ECG 722 students will be able to: 

1.	Design noise–shaping data converters given a set of requirements such as bandwidth, clock speed, and signal–to–noise ratio.
2.	Design, simulate, and implement the digital interpolation and decimation filters used in noise–shaping data converters.
3.	Design, simulate, and implement the analog filters used for anti–aliasing and reconstruction in a data conversion system.
4.	Discuss the limitations of op–amps and comparators used in noise–shaping data converters.
5.	Simulate noise–shaping data converting circuits and systems and the filtering used.
6.	Design a high–speed noise–shaping converter using a cascaded modulator or the K–Delta–1–Sigma topology.
