Fall 2022 - For this class, it helps to be strong in the material covered in physics 1B for the first half of the course. As long as you do your homework and watch lectures you will do fine in the midterm and the final. The second half of the course was really fun. Using smith chart is like memorizing an algorithm so once you have it down you will be fine. Sam is a really good professor and explains everything thoroughly and clearly if you ask questions during lecture.

Winter 2022 - Emaminejad is a good professor. His lectures are clear and the slides are very helpful. The tests were pretty difficult but looked similar to lecture. It's just too bad that semiconductors is a field invented by satan to torment EE students. Nothing about the field is intuitive. There are a bunch of random formulas/graphs and weird chemistry/physics. This class is very similar to ECE 2, so know that it is more of the same. I thought that this course would give me more of an insight and understanding, but I am still confused. Many things from ECE 2 were cleared up but a lot of the new material added to my confusion. I studied it the best I could and did pretty well in the course, but I feel like there is much more for me to learn if I wanted to work in fabrication. This is a core course and I would recommend taking it with Emaminejad. Other core courses I would recommend are 141 and 101B. There are some much worse core courses and professors that are more worth your two skips.
