Lecture materials with blanks can be downloaded from scomb by the 2day before each class. Prepare by using this materials,
and fill the blanks at the class. When you miss or could not understand sufficiently, full version of materials are delivered
using scomb in the next day of the class. So it's desirable to review using these materials.
It's desirable to take the class "Fundamentals of Electric Circuits", "Circuit Theory", "Transitional Phenomenon of Circuit".
In addition, it is also desirable to understand the contents of the class "Basic Electronics" fully.
- Before the class (8:30-9:00) and after the class (10:40-10:50).
