Simulation projects were difficult only in leaning Cadence. There is a large learning curve with this software, but once you get it, it is easy. Fox makes you feel a little dumb sometimes when you ask him questions, but he is willing to work with you until you understand.

Not enough problems to work for practice. Difficult at times to deduce test material. Annoying that homework is due next lecture.

Professor writes too fast, talks too fast, and erases before you can copy. There are six boards yet he only uses two.

Excellent course. It should be offered every semester by the same professor.
