6. Safety
Please wear covered shoes – NO SLIPPERS. Otherwise, you will be asked to leave the lab.
Power must be switched off whenever an experiment or project is being assembled, disassembled, or modified.

7. Tidiness
When the experiment has been satisfactory completed and the results approved by the instructor, the students may disconnect the circuit and return the components and instruments to the locker tidily.
Chairs are to be slid in properly.
DO NOT WRITE anything on the table

8. Preparation
Read the entire experiment and research any required theory beforehand. Many times an experiment takes longer that one class period simply because a student is not well prepared.
The experiment is performed in pairs (max=3 students per group) but the final exam is performed individually
One group = one lab report

9. Lab Reports Reports have to be handwritten for submission.
Writing should appear on one side of each sheet only.
The students’ name & matric number, section number, lab session and the lecturer’s
Please indicate the author of each section in your report.
The cover page of the lab report can be downloaded from the website.

11. Preparation for PSPICE Tutorial
Download 16.6_OrCAD_Lite_Capture&PSpice_Products.zip from the any computer in the lab
It is a zipped file, you have to extract the files into a designated folder
Once you have extracted, go to Disk 1 and look for SETUP (it is an application file) to install the software.
One group will require ONE laptop for the tutorial sessions

12. Introduction to Lab Equipment
Bread board and its connections
Holes that are labelled with letters means SAME node

14. Function Generator
To create AC signals such as Sine-Wave, Triangular Waves and Square Wave
The user can alter its frequency and amplitude
Example of a function generator

15. Oscilloscope An equipment to show the obtained result. Has 2 channels
One for input signal
One for output signal

16. DC power supply
To provide DC supply to your circuit which you can measure using digital multi-meter

17. Digital Multimeter (DMM)
To measure voltage, turn the knob to DC Volts
The DMM is place ACROSS/IN PARALLEL with the device
To measure current, turn the knob to AC (mA)
The lead is place IN SERIES with the device
Main reason why DMM failed to work as Ammeter is because students tend to short circuit the two leads.
