Welcome to class! Take a look at this syllabus and the course schedule. |
Course Overview and Prerequisites:
This course covers topics in the design of digital circuits. CSE 140 must be taken concurrently. The majority of CSE140L class is devoted to small digital design projects. This course also provides an introduction to hardware design tool called Xilinx Webpack, and Xilinx board XUP VIRTEX-II Pro. CSE140L will use the embedded laboratory at EBU3 3219 this quarter. We have 15 PCs with windows XP pro installed with ISE9.2i. Each PC also has a Xilinx XUP Vertex-II Pro connected to it. To access the laboratory, you will need to activate your student ID with CSE staff.
Textbook
The required textbook is:
Contemporary Logic Design (2nd Edition)
by Randy H. Katz and Gaetano Borriello
Prentice Hall, 2004
ISBN: 0-201-30857-6
Obtaining additional assistance
The easiest way to get answers to your questions about the course is by asking them in lecture, and office hours. You can also ask questions by sending email to the instructor and TA. We will try to respond to your questions as quickly as possible, but sometimes a prompt response may not always be possible.
You are also encourage to post questions to WebCT, where we as well as other students can also try to help you with your questions. We will be monitoring the content daily.
Any students who feel that they may need additional accommodation due to a disability should contact the instructor privately to discuss these specific needs. Also, contact the Office for Students with Disabilities (OSD) at (858) 534-4382 as soon as possible to better ensure that such accommodations, such as alternative test-taking environments or note-taking services, are implemented in a timely fashion.
Grading
During this course, approximately 4 lab assignments will be graded. Your overall course grade will be determined by the following weighted combination of your performance:
- Labs 70%: (Lab#1 10%, Lab#2 15%, Lab#3 20%, Lab#4 25%)
- Final exam 30%
Acceptance of late work
No late assignments will be accepted. Exceptions for UCSD-sponsored athletic or other extra-curricular activities, documented medical emergencies, death of an immediate family member, or other such life-altering situations must be requested from the instructor as soon as possible.
Regrade requests
Requests for a grade change need to be submitted in writing together with the already graded homework or exam at the end of class when the graded homework or exam was returned to all students. Thorough review of the entire homework or exam will be performed, and points may be added or subtracted. After the readjusted homework or exam is returned, you may set up an appointment to discuss the results.
Academic Dishonesty
As students in this offering of CSE 140, you are expected to know and abide by the UCSD Policy on Integrity of Scholarship (as described in the Student Conduct Code in the UCSD General Catalog), the Jacobs School of Engineering Student Honor Code, and the course policy described here. Please take a few moments to read and review these policies.
Homework must be completed individually. You are encouraged to discuss the homework with others, but you may not copy answers. All exams are individual effort. Dishonest behavior will not be tolerated during an exam. Since you are expected to complete all homework and exams by yourself, you will be held responsible even if you plagiarize only a small portion of someone else's work. Furthermore, providing your work for others to copy is also considered as academic dishonesty.
Any student violating UCSD's Academic Dishonesty or UCSD's Student Conduct policies will earn an 'F' in the course and will be reported to their college Dean for administrative processing. Committing acts that violate Student Conduct policies that result in course disruption are cause for suspension or dismissal from UCSD. |
