1. ECEU403 Electronics Lab Five Labs, each lasts for two weeks –Part (1): Build and measure the performance of electronic circuits. Develop an understanding of electronic components (first week) –Part (2): Use the knowledge gained in part (1) to design, build and test an electronic circuit to meet specifications (second week) If you finish Part (1) early, feel free to proceed to Part (2)

2. What you need A lab notebook –prefer a HARDBOUND book with graph paper A lab partner –if you don’t have one, just pick a lab bench and we will assign a partner

3. Before Part (1) Read the lab Complete the prelab questions –these will prepare you to understand the lab experiment better. You may want to make a copy of your prelab for use during Part (1). Questions in the experiment will be related to your prelab work.

4. During Part (1) Arrive on-time –you will have two hours to complete the lab Check-out the equipment for ECEU403 from the lab techs (be sure to indicate the course number so you get the right stuff) Hand-in the prelab to the TA Begin working on the lab as soon as possible

5. After Part (1) Complete the Lab Report –Each person must write their own report –This is not a group report! –Follow the guidelines for lab report format Reconsider your design for Part (2) before the second week

6. During Part (2) Arrive on time, and get the equipment for the lab tech Hand-in your lab report from Part (1) –Late Reports (-10% per day) to 520 DANA. Build and test your design, paying attention to the design specs! When your design is working, carefully record the design in your lab notebook. Before leaving, demonstrate the design to the TA, or me, and get the lab notebook initialed. There is NO write-up required for the design.

7. Grading Prelabs:25% Lab Reports:65% Lab Notebook:10% –notebooks will be collected and graded after Lab 4, Part (2).
