This paper describes the structure and potential of an Internet-based mixed-signal design course, which is initiated between industry (Infineon Technologies, Munich) and Darmstadt University of Technology. The challenges for developing and integrating mixed-signal Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) in modern application areas, e.g. mobile telecommunication devices, are sketched, which results in new interdisciplinary education demands. The goal of this global accessible course is to provide a step for integrating the analog and digital design education worlds considering the actual application criteria from industry and to improve the soft skills of the participants.
