very good

ACHA THA

Enchanté

I wanted to refresh what I learned in undergrad, believing that I was now interested in exploring a career change from software development to designing embedded systems. The time commitment required is much greater than advertised. First, the weekly lectures frequently skimmed passed material that will be tested in the associated quiz, forcing you to scour the forums and Google to expand on the material (ex: cube notation). Second, the way the quizzes were crafted were borderline cheap shots at making the class difficult. For example, weeks seven thru eight's practice quizzes would have problems of a certain type, only so that the graded quiz would list problems of a completely different type. What was the point of practicing then? Third, the VM for the circuit diagramming labs was so locked down, you couldn't increase the display resolution so many hours are wasted squinting at the monitor to move the cursor literally 1-2 pixels over lest a signal isn't actually connected. All these factors contribute to making the time commitment realistically >= 5 hours per week for the practice and graded quizzes alone, as you will be redoing them multiple times. Overall, I would recommend you find another reputable university to cover Digital Systems.

Very theoretical, but at the same time, goes deep into real-world considerations of digital circuit design, like gate delays and physical. This is what I appreciate about the course.

However, the grading is too archaic for some questions. The VM-based digital design quizzes were great, and the software used is well documented, but the multiple choice questions are a bit contrived. It would be better if there was some way to also grade the final processor design, like in nand2tetris.

Also the intructors' speaking gets downright incomprehensible at certain points.

I was really helpful by the advance of this course.I an VLSI student got an understanding of designing of the processor.But it might have been more compact and good if the "TEST BENCH " of the design is also included with it .

Thanks for your effort .

The presentation can be improved. The VHDL part is very poor need to improve that portion of the course. But the digital portion is good with all the assignments and quiz. But the course was not upto expectation.

This course has a very good quiz that can teach you many things, however, the videos are not good enough so that students can handle the quiz smoothly. There is still a large gap between the videos and the quiz.

The video content needs to be more expanded

The course itself is really good and is pretty helpful. THE VERILUOC QUESTION ARE THE WORST and graded quiz of week 5 is ABSOLUTE TRASH. I have attempted it more than 9 times, and I am pretty sure I will pass the course but the grading score is always less than or equal to 50%

the course is really outdated and the Virtual machine does not download on windows 11, it asks for memory integrity to be turned off to install, the instructors should update the course

Explanation is not clear and certain concepts really have a poor explanation. Some quizzes are really hard and the concepts are not explained clearly. I don't think it is worth doing.

Difficult tests but only brief and hasty explanations in video lectures.

Questions make no sense when we look at what they teach

A good course, but would not recommend for beginners.

They have spent 3 months nearly failing to fix the download link for you to be able to complete the course

Hi, unfortunately the videos don't have good sound quality.

very high level course and cannot do anything

TOO COMPLECATED AND TIME CONSUMING QUIZZES

Worst course i have ever seen in my life.

too hard to understand the language

worst course

madarchod

Too hard

VERY BAD
