A very time consuming class, Mark was quite helpful throughout the difficult labs. I do think the exam difficulty was fair despite me messing up a few things. Eventually I received a grade of a B while having 88% in the class, turns out he curved it down which I didn't know was a thing. Overall a hard class, tough grader but otherwise decent prof.

i love mark j. w. rodwell he is so sweet and enthusiastic

idk why people call him crazy or eccentric. open your mind a little and stop being so judgmental. he's just so passionate about circuits. i love this man and i love this class

Rodwell is quite an eccentric man, nevertheless quite an engaging lecturer. Just like his courses he moves at high speeds and talks at high frequencies, so expect to pour in a lot of hours to fully understand transistor topologies. Understanding 137-level electronics is a must for all EE's, and 145a does good work introducing RF design.

he's so passionate it's infectious. fun lectures, he'll jump up on tables and dance around to explain differential vs common mode. he goes fast and seems intimidating in OH, but he's really sweet and truly cares about his students. idk why other reviews are bad, i think he's misinterpreted. labs are lots of work but v fun if you truly like circuits

Rodwell is the worst professor I have had in my entire life. HWs do not reflect on class material. Notes are full of useless information and do not reflect on the exam stuff. I can't stress enough how awful lectures are. He covers stuff fast, illegible handwriting with no references to look up. Absolute worst. He is impossible to talk to.
