Dr. Aaron Lanterman, a Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Georgia Tech, let us know that he is teaching his ECE4450: Analog Circuits for Music class online in the Spring 2021 semester, due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

He is posting his new video lectures on his Youtube channel, where they are freely available. We have also embedded his video playlist above.

Topics covered in his course include:

• Historical perspective
• Demonstration of a modular synthesizer
• Circuit theory review (emphasis on operational amplifiers)
• Operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs)
  • Voltage-controlled amplifiers
  • Linear current sources
• Voltage-controlled oscillators
  • Sawtooth cores (comparators with resettable integrators)
  • Temperature-compensated exponential current sources
  • Triangle cores (comparators and integrators with current switches)
  • Basic waveshaping circuits
