They are simply suggested material that you should work on to be assured that you can work the appropriate kinds of problems for the quiz. Also, as discussed in class, I will be giving the third quiz during the first part of the scheduled exam next Tuesday, with a shortened Final Exam following that quiz. Quiz 3 will cover transistors (Chapters 12 and 13) only. The final exam will cover the remaining information from the term. (Digital Devices, Diodes, Amplifiers, and Op-Amps.) Tentatively, we identified 6:00 p.m. Sunday and 6:00 p.m. Monday as two times for review sessions. Unless there is some overwhelming reason to do otherwise, I will plan to be there in the classroom at those times to answer any questions you might have. If neither of these times are available for you, please let me know, and we'll work out some alternative arrangement. Finally, I am enclosing the Key Equations for Chapters 12, 13, and 14. These will be provided to you for the third quiz and the final exam, along with the other equation list from Quiz 2. Let me know if there are any other issues that we need to discuss, or if you have any questions related to any of this information. Randy Follett P.S.
