Errata

 

This is the old page for the spring semester of 2000. The new page will come soon!

 

The following errata have been found in the course notes:

  1. Page 2.8: The second paragraph after definition of causal system should have been: The systems in Examples 1 and 2 are causal. The systems in Examples 3 and 4 are noncausal.
  2. Page 3.4: The denominator of r1,r2 should have been 2 (instead of 3).
  3. Page 7.2: Definition of z transform should have a z^(-n), not z^n.
  4. Page 9.5: The first term on the right-hand side should have (z-1)^2 in the denominator.
  5. Page 12.6: "However, a PFE of Y(z) will then have the form"... The last term in the PFE form should be B_(N-1)/z^(N-1), not B_(N-2)/z^(N-2).
  6. Page 12.6:"Now, we are faced ..." The last term in the numerator of Y(z) should be z^N - 1, not z^(N-1) - 1
  7. Page 22.1: The plot should be centered at omega=0, not at omega=pi/2.
  8. Page 28.3: In the third line of equations, the part inside the brackets reads:
    ( e^{j*Omega*T/2} - e^{-j*Omega*T/2} )
    it should read: ( e^{-j*Omega*T/2} - e^{j*Omega*T/2} )
    The rest of the proof is OK.
  9. Page 29.2: The Flash A/D uses 2^N - 1 comparators, not 2^(N-1)
  10. Page 29.5: The spectrum shown is spectrum of |F_a(Omega)|, not of F_a(Omega).
  11. Page 27.6: Spectrum of Xd(w) should be limited to 2*pi*10^5*T, not 2*pi/T. Spectrum of Yd(w) shoud be limited to pi/4, not pi/T.
  12. Page 50.5: 1) Zero-pad {h(n)}n=0..M-1 with L (should be L-1) zeros ... Also, replace every "M+L-1" with "M+L-2" for 1) and 2).
