As a prerequisite for this course, you basically need to be familiar with the material in Sedra & Smith chapters 1 thru 9. At Columbia chapters 1 thru 5 are covered in the ee3331 electronics course and 6 to 9 in the ee4312 analog circuits course.

Below is a detailed review of the material covered in ee4312.
