Quiz and HW grading: Unscheduled 10-min Pop Quizzes at the end of the lecture hours. Two home works before midterm and before final. Reading home-works, and small project-home works related to details of the calculations for HLES design.
Lab grading: Six labs (0.5p each), reports of labs (0.5p each), and hardware implementation (about 4p). Missing more than 2 labs resets lab grade.
Policy on makeups: For eligibility to take a makeup exam, the student should bring a valid excuse (medical report) within 3 working days of the missed exam. No make-up exam for quizzes. Final and midterm make-up exams are conducted after final exam. Students may get NG if they miss both midterm and final exam.
Policy on cheating and plagiarism: Any student caught cheating at the exams or assignments will automatically fail the course and may be sent to the disciplinary committee at the discretion of the instructor.
