Lab Equipment:

1. ‣Typical Lab Bench
   

Equipment

1. • Digital Multimeter
   

2. • Oscilloscope
   

3. • Function Generator
   

4. • Power Supplies
   

Lab Location:

1. •Access to laboratory station is performed in ENGTR Rm 5070.  No food or drink in the lab.
   

Lab Requirements:

1. •Each student is expected to complete six (6) laboratories, the initial two labs will be simulation based and the latter four will be performed by the student on a bench with measuring equipment. Each part is synchronized with the course delivery. Students are expected to perform the lab activity each week in their designated lab time.
   

1. •On average, each experiment section will take no more than 2 weeks to complete; some less, some more.  It is the students responsibility to manage their time appropriately and to keep up to date.

Preparation Report Guidelines:

1. •Teams should come to the laboratory with the preparation section completed. These will be submitted on MyCourses (for grading) by the noon of your laboratory session.
   

1. •Preparation should be typed, with all the questions answered, and printouts of simulation results should be included.
   

1. •These are worth 15% of the laboratory grade.
   

2. ★A penalty of 10% per overdue day will be enforced.
   

Lab Demo Guidelines:

1. •Teams should come to the laboratory with the preparation section completed; These will be submitted on MyCourses (for grading) by the noon of your laboratory session.
   

1. •When an experimentation section is complete, you are required to demonstrate it to your section’s laboratory TA.
   

1. •Note that for every laboratory session, 5 points are allocated to cleanup (resistors, cables, equipment power-down, etc.).
   

2. ★The laboratory must be clean of all stray items; The entire section that is assigned to the laboratory day will be penalized when this is not enforced (this decision is made by your section’s laboratory TA).
   

Report Writing Guidelines:

1. •There will be one laboratory report to hand in at the end of each experiment.
   

1. •The laboratory report is worth 25% total of the entire laboratory grade.
   

2. ★A penalty of 10% per overdue day will be enforced.
   

3. ★The due date for the report is listed in the laboratory schedule document - click here
   

1. •The report will include:
   

2. ★All measurements requested to perform in the experiments’ handouts.
   

3. ★Plots should be scanned and incorporated seamlessly with one or two supporting sentences.
   

4. ★Writing should be brief and to the point; don’t include long description of textbook material; keep the report short and no longer than 4 pages meeting a double-column single-space format; font should be no larger than 11 point.
   

5. ★Report should contain: title, Abstract, Introduction, Main body, Conclusions, References and any Appendices.
   

1. •Submit as a PDF file through MyCourses on the completion of each lab.
