    Chapter                           Topic

      5      Optimum Filter Responses:  Filter optimization in the time
             and frequency domains.  ITAE and ISE step, ISE impulse,
             ISE delay, ISE gain/phase, and minimum rise time optimum
             filters.  Minimax, Valand, Budak, and Pade optimum linear
             phase filters.

      6      Frequency Transformations:  Lowpass-to-highpass, bandpass,
             bandstop, and allpass transformations.

      9      Highpass Filters:  Filter compilations, and design examples.
             Tuned highpass filters and complementary highpass filters.

      10     Bandpass Filters:  Filter compilations, and design examples.
             Tuned bandpass filters and frequency discriminators.
 
      11     Bandstop Filters:  Filter compilations, and design examples.
             Tuned bandstop filters and amplitude equalizers.

      12     Allpass Filters:  Filter compilations, and design examples.
             Tuned allpass filters and delay equalizers.

      13     Oscillators:  Oscillator compilations, and design examples.
             Harmonic distortion.

Project: Design, analyze (using microCap simulations and other software), 
	build, and test a 4th order bandpass or bandstop filter, tuned filter,
	or discriminator.
