Textbook Information
There is not a single book that covers all the things that will be discussed in ECE 662. The class will reference four books during the course of the semester as we cover various topics. Three of them are available through the reserves at the engineering library, as noted below.
Links to online vendors are listed at the end of each textbook description.
