Five foundational courses are recommended in order: electronics fundamentals (MIT 6.002, CMOS basics), C programming (K&R book, hardware-focused approach), computer architecture (MIT 6.004 with hands-on CPU design), hardware modeling using Verilog (NPTEL by Prof. Indra Gupta), and 8051/8085 microprocessor/microcontroller fundamentals. The video also covers the correct study sequence, advanced add-on courses for analog VLSI and digital VLSI specializations, and tips on using AI tools like YouTube's Gemini integration and NotebookLM to accelerate learning. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
