Basically ECE 242 for struggling TRON students who never learned to transist until fourth year. Content is not too challenging and very interesting for circuits-oriented TRONs. Will provide the necessary foundation if you want to take ECE 444 without dying.
Not difficult to do really well if you keep up with the content, which did take a decent amount of time because there were 3 recorded videos + 2 live lectures every week (~ 5 hours of lectures total). That being said, most of the live lectures were spent reviewing the recorded lectures. He also assigned homework during a lot of lectures, which isn't necessary but helps to engage with the content as you go.
