19.8.08
The grading of Moed Miluim has been completed. Unfortunately, the
grades could be announced and forwarded to the UG office only once
the strike of the teaching assistants is over.
16.7.08
As planned, Moed Miluim will take place on 28/7/08. According to our
data, it will start on 28/7/08 at 18:30 in Room Fischbach 506. However, please re-check for
potential last-minute updates at the UG Web-site (for a link, see the announcement of 10.6.08 below).
To qualify for Moed Miluim you have to show the original ISHUR Miluim
to one of the course's staff before the exam. Good luck!
23.6.08
A comment/correction has been added to Question 7 of Part 1, Moed B.
As a result, several students have received a raise of 10 points for
that part. Their new grades have been forwarded to the UG office
and these higher grades are expected to replace their previous grades soon.
10.6.08
Final grades for Moed B are available
here. Based on the statistics, no factor/adjustment was needed.
Moed Miluim is planned for 28/7/08, starting at the time of the 2nd
Test of the spring "Theory of Electronic Circuits". Please check the
UG web-site
for up-to-date details regarding location and exact time.
To attend Moed Miluim, please show your ISHUR Miluim
(the original, as issued at the end of the Miluim service) to one of
the lecturers or the TAs before the exam. We will also
need a hardcopy or a scanned copy of the ISHUR by email.
The material and rules for Moed Miluim are identical to those of Moed B,
however, depending on the number of students, it may consist of
open questions rather than multiple-choice.
26.5.08
Moed B consists of 2 parts, corresponding to the 2 tests during the semester. Each part is based on the same material of the corresponding test during the semester. The allocated time for each part is 90 minutes. A student who is present at the exam room at the beginning of a part is considered as taking that part and has to submit the answer sheet by the end of the allocated time. The new grade will then replace any previous record regarding that test. The calculation of the final grade is similar to the calculation during the semester.
21.5.08
Final grades for Moed A of the course are available
here.
Due to the special situation, it has been decided to consider the grades
of the computer exercise as OVER/NICHSHAL (Pass/Fail), where an OVER
grade (above 55) means full credit for a part, i.e., 6% of the final
grade for each
OVER part.
The graded works are available at the Fischbach library.
18.5.08
An updated list of grades for the Computer Exercise - Part 1
and Part 2 is available
here.
Regarding
Part 1, Shay Maayani has completed the grading of
additional works that he had mistakenly overlooked in his first
grading.
Unfortunately, as far as we know, Shay hasn't returned
yet the graded works to the Fischbach library. We will announce
when this happens, and from that date students will have 2 weeks
to appeal Shay Maayani's grades, if needed.
14.5.08
Due to difficulties with grading some of the computer
exercises, the deadline for appeals is postponed until
25.5.08. Those who wish to contact Shay Maayani,
the grader, may try also at his mobile phone - the phone
number was published in our messages to the mailing list
of the course on 14.4.08 and 14.5.08. If you have not received
these messages you may like to check your subscription to the mailing
list, or whether these messages were considered spam by your mailer.
6.5.08
The grades of the computer exercise - Part 1 are available
here.
If needed, appeals will be considered in writing only. In such a case,
please attach your written appeal to your original work, and place
both in Shay Maayani's personal mailbox at the 8th floor, EE Meyer
building. Deadline for appeals: 16.5.08. Please keep a copy for your
records.
If you have difficulties in finding your graded work, please check with
Shay Maayani.
14.4.08
Unfortunately, we are aware of difficulties in contacting Shay
Maayani, the homework grader, regarding the second computer
exercise. Shay will add office hours during this week: on Tuesday and
on Wednesday, both at 15:00-16:00.
Those who have Miluim of more than one day during
April 1-17 will get an automatic deadline extension of 2 weeks
from the last day of their miluim service. For this we will need
their ISHUR miluim, as issued at the end of the army service.
We wish all those students safe Miluim.
Personal cases not associated with Miluim could be brought
to the attention of Shay Maayani or the KIDUM STUDENTIM
unit of the Technion.
13.4.08
Since the topic of 'two-port' was not completely covered in one of the
lecture groups, only 2 out of the 3 questions of 'Computer Exercise -
Part 2' will be needed for submission. Those who will submit all 3
questions will be graded based on the best 2 questions.
10.4.08
Grades of Test 2 are available
here.
The grades contain additional 7 points (factor) to adjust
the statistics to previous tests - the resultant average is slightly higher
than last semester.
The answers will be soon
available at "Exercises, Information & Exams" (above).
2.4.08 Computer Exercise - Part 2 is now available
here.
26.3.08
Submission of the computer exercise (Part 1) is postponed until
Monday 31.3.08 at 17:00.
25.3.08
The material for Test 2 is based on the lectures given during Weeks
6, 7, 8, 9, 10 of the semester + their associated 5 tutorials.
Naturally, the material of Test 1 serves as a background for
the material of Test 2. Most of the topics are presented in
Chapters 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 9 of Prof. Schachter's booklet
(March 2006 edition). The operational amplifiers topic
(and other relevant topics) is presented in the associated Exercises booklet.
Good luck!

Once the first lectures are given today
(Tuesday, Moshe Porat's group) and tomorrow (Wednesday,
David Gidony's group), we start the tutorials as originally planned,
based on the lectures.
Tutorial 1 will be given starting Wednesday 23.1.08 according to
the original schedule and locations. This tutorial is similar to the
tutorial given during the first weeks of the strike, however, more time
will be dedicated this time to the exercises, instead of the extended
theoretical introduction that was needed when the lectures were not held.
Those of you who attended the first tutorial during the strike are welcome
to attend this tutorial again to refresh their memory and associate the
material with the lectures.
30.10.07
If the strike continues, no tutorials and Sadnaot will be given
after 30.10.07.
29.10.07
The Sadna of Tuesday 30.10.07 takes place as
scheduled. Please check for further updates regarding
Wednesday 31.10.07 and beyond.

place as scheduled. The material in these tutorials
will be similar to the tutorials given on 24/10/07 and

An announcement regarding studies on Tuesday 30/10 and beyond is expected by
29/10.
Please note that the tutorials of Wednesday (15:30-16:30 & 16:30-17:30)
have been moved to Meyer 354 for the rest of the semester.
22.10.07
The tutorials of Wednesday 24.10.07 and Thursday 25.10.07 will

first lecture of both lecture-groups are held. If the lectures start
as planned on 23.10.07 and the morning of 24.10.07, this
means that the first tutorials will be given in the afternoon
of Wednesday 24.10.07. Please follow closely future email
messages and the web-site of the course for further updates in
case of a strike.
The exact dates of the workshops ("sadnaot") in this course will be announced
