Fall 2020 Lab Course Updates
- ESE 111 (class + lab). Instructors: George Pappas (pappasg@seas) and Sid Deliwala (deliwala@seas)
- The class will be remotely held.
- Labs are synchronous and remote. On-line labs will be identical to the ones usually conducted in-person. Every student will get identical parts kit and sections over Zoom will be conducted in smaller groups.
- There will extensive support provided on line for helping you with prototyping and during in lab sessions.
- ESE 215 (class + lab). Remote. All students will get Digilent AD2 scope card, full parts kit. Instructor: Firooz Aflatouni (Firooz@seas)
- ESE 218 (class + lab). Remote. Instructor: Deep Jariwala (dmj@seas)
- ESE 370 (class+ lab). Remote. Instructor:Tania Khanna (Taniak@seas)
- Lectures will be online due to the class size and will occur synchronously via Zoom
- Lectures will be recorded and posted in Canvas
- Lab sessions will be turned into small group virtual lab demos with the instructor to be scheduled
- All office hours will be held virtually
- All assignments will be done individually. As usual, software will be used remotely or installed locally on your machine (preferred)
- See website for syllabus and typical course schedule
- ESE 421 (Class+ lab). Remote. All students will get full parts kit for doing labs at home. Instructor: Bruce Kothman (kothmann@seas)
- ESE 450 Senior Design. Instructors:Jan van der Spiegel (jan@seas) and Sid Deliwala (deliwala@seas).
- ESE Senior Design class will be held remote due to our class size.
- Zoom links will be posted on Canvas.
- We expect team meetings on a weekly basis to happen over zoom.
- For students who need to work in the senior design lab for prototyping and testing,
- A schedule will be made for teams to work. Detkin and Ketterer Labs may also be available.

- ESE 519 (class+lab). Instructor:Kim Luong (kimluong@seas).
- Lectures and labs will be online due to the class size
- All assignments will be done individually
- Parts kits will be used by students in.lab or remote. Proposed Labs are:
- Bootloader
- Morse
- Theremin
- Real Time Operating systems
- Zoom links will be posted on the calendar as well as canvas
- Read more…
- ESE 532 (class+lab). Instructor:Andre’ DeHon (andre@seas)
- Online (Zoom) lectures: Synchronous delivery that includes interactions with students who can attend; we recommend students attend the synchronous delivery. Recordings of synchronous delivered lecture available on Canvas for asynchronous viewing by those who cannot make the lecture or wish to get a refresher.
- Online office hours (Zoom, Google Meet)
- Teams as per usual (pairs for homework) that may collaborate remotely — we expect remote collaboration over Zoom or Google Meet.
- Remote and cloud-based homeworks — we are making plans for the exercise in the first half to use F1 on Amazon EC2, including both cloud access to Xilinx tools and to a server-with-FPGA platform.
- Providing students with equipment for remote use:about half-way through the course, we plan to transition to embedded SoC FPGA platforms for the lab (most likely Ultra96). We will make plans to provide (ship) boards to remote students.
- Students will need to run the tools either remotely using Penn computers OR on their own computers — the experience will generally be better if you can run the software on your own computer, but it does demand a certain level of computing power, memory, and space from your computer and the installation will take some time and possibly fiddling given the variety of computers student’s usually have.
- We expect no need for physical lab access. Given a suitable network link and computer, all lab work can be completed remotely.

- ESE 680 (class +lab). Instructor: Jing Li (janeli@seas)
Summer 2020
EAS 028 Management and Technology Summer Institute Spring 2020.
Spring 2020 Announcements
- ESE 112 No more labs required for the rest of the semester; videos of the experiments will replace labs.
- ESE 190 (last updated 3/19/20) Online sessions will replace the required labs.
- ESE 150 (last updated 3/15/20) Detkin staff and Prof DeHon will coordinate distributing parts to students who can carry out the labs at home.
- ESE 224 The labs are Matlab based.
- ESE 292 (last updated 3/19/20) We’ll unfortunately not be able to work on hardware this semester, given our limitations. Thankfully, we can use Altium and SolidWorks remotely. Because of this, the class will be able to pursue more topics in both Altium and SolidWorks — think multi-sheet schematics, rendered SolidWorks models, etc. Class hours will be retained — Mondays from 6-7:30pm. During this time, the class will discuss related topics and doing screen share + recording. Recordings will be available later. Campuswire will continue to be our support forum where we’ll be handling questions you may have.
- ESE 319 [this information is also on ESE 319 Piazza]We’ll keep the same labs and the same lab schedule as before.
- Prelabs remain the same
- The only work we will do will be the simulations in LTSpice
- For the final project you will “simulate” the project and then layout a PCB in altium software at home
- Sid is working on getting personal licenses for LTSpice and Altium for you to install on your laptops
- The PCB will be sent for fabrication (maybe) and we might integrate the soldering/building of your physical project into next terms ESE 419! Still working out the logistics on that.
- I may be re-balancing the percentages of the lab final project (currently 30%), lab submissions/prelabs to account for this (more on that as we get closer to the final project). will be replaced by online tutorials of Altium.
- ESE 350 Labs will be suspended, but class sessions will continue online.
- ESE 615 Classes will be online and can be recorded.
- ESE 421 Data will be collected by TAs or instructor and will be used for online HW.
- ESE 516 (last updated 3/18/20)For the remainder of the class, all enrolled students are being shipped IoT Dev boards that should reach by 3/26. The boards will be for teaching the entire project implementation.
- Senior Design/ESE 451 All deliverables will move online.
