Components and Design Techniques
for Digital Systems

Welcome to CS150. My name is Randy Huang and I am one of TAs that will be assisting you in your labs and projects this semester. This site is for informational use, notes, review sheets, tips on labs, etc. Since I don't readily have access to the CS150 site, this is a quicker way for me to give you students information.

I'll try to post notes from lectures. These notes will be stuff that I think will be important for you on the midterms, final, and probably the projects. Also feel free to roam this site, love to get your feedback. =)

Lab Times:

Mondays 5-8pm
Tuesdays 5-8pm
