Analog Electronics class: deriving an amp that doesn't exist, amplifying hatred
cneuralnetwork · x · 2026-11-15
A viral engineering rant: you sign up for mandatory 'Analog Electronics' expecting to design chips, but instead a professor who hasn't touched a real circuit since the transistor was invented spends three hours deriving the voltage gain of an amplifier that doesn't exist, using assumptions that would get you fired from any semiconductor company. Meanwhile 60 future engineers blindly copy equations from a 2006 PowerPoint, half the class can't tell a MOSFET from a BJT, and the lab oscilloscopes haven't worked in years — the only thing getting amplified is everyone's hatred for engineering.
