content: Hey guys, I recently had eye surgery on my left eye, due to another detached retina, and I was hoping someone could give me a hand. I am not supposed to use a computer, read, or study for two weeks. So, I can't spend a lot of time researching this myself. This all happened very quickly so I didn't get much preparation time before hand. The doctor said that I can watch television, though, since that is performed at a distance.I am an junior EE student and I am taking circuit analysis 2 and electronics 1 at my university. I was hoping someone might help me find a set of free videos somewhere that I could download and play on my television with my computer (using windows media center) so that I can have some material to "study" while not using a computer or books for these two weeks. To give you an idea what we are covering:In my circuit analysis class we covered analysis in the frequency domain using laplace transforms, transfer functions, then fourier series/transforms, and when this happened we had just started on two port networks, and I believe next would have been, bode plots, frequency responses, resonance circuits, steady state power analysis, and more phasor analysis.In electronics we went over semiconductor physics, diodes, BJTs, then amplifier topologies, biasing, and circuit analysis. When my surgery happened we had just started on MOSFETs (modeling, characteristics, single-stage amplifier design and analysis) then OPAmps.Thanks for any help anyone can provide. I'm going back to bed, I have stitches in my eyeball and right now my eye feels like there are shards of glass under my eyelid. :-)

content: If you can get Youtube on a TV that would be fantastic. Also, since the point is using the screen at a distance, you could have a wireless mouse and keyboard and use the computer with the TV and a screen magnification program to look for material. I don't have any material at hand that covers what you are looking for, but MIT has some similar content on MIT OpenCourseWare.Got that size up to let you read it OKHope you recover perfectly.

content: This has a lot of the semiconductor stuff you mentioned. I personally watched it a some years ago, but didn't really understand it because my math wasn't up to par then (I was 15 or 16).http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/electrical-engineering-and-computer-science/6-002-circuits-and-electronics-spring-2007/This is the general catalog, Electrical Engineering is selected. It's all video lectures. In most things not filmed in HD the resolution is OK, good enough to understand what the professor writes down.http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/find-by-topic/#cat=engineering&subcat=electricalengineering&spec=electronics

content: Thanks Ivan, I really appreciate it. I watched the first two videos and so far it's been review, which is always nice. But looking down the list there seems to be some definite stuff that overlaps with the material I've been learning this semester. That will keep me busy for a while. :-)
