My peeps from Cooper will enjoy this thoroughly. As many of you know, I'm taking an undergrad circuit design class. While the material is relatively easy, it has a lab portion, and I absolutely loathe and despise labs with a passion. It's made worse by the fact that my partner is an idiot - these are obviously NOT Cooper-quality folk, not even the other grad students in this class. We just finished 5 weeks' worth of op-amp design in two-man teams. For the next 6 weeks after spring break, our task was to choose a design project (had to do with linear circuit design) and complete it with our new five-man groups.
I convinced my team that we should design...
...
...
...
...a 5-band audio equalizer.
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.
The best part is that these kids thought it was a suitably difficult project and appropriate for the time-span.
So my plan is to go home over spring break, grab the schematic of the equalizer John and I designed for our junior lab project, come back and say "OK, I did my part, you guys do the rest". Keep in mind, this was the EASY part of our junior lab project - the bitch was the power amplification stage.
I hate having to be in this lab class, and I've just secured my revenge.
