This laboratory course will be presented in a teaching lab format and is meant to cover the laboratory components of the Level 2 electronics courses taught in Semester 1, along with components from the level one ECNG1000 circuit analysis course for the electronics engineers.
The students will be assigned experiments and a major design project that are consistent with the courses they are undertaking. The design project will be an integral part of the course. A formal project report and demonstration of prototype must be presented at the end of the semester.
Six Laboratory reports (equal weighting) 30%
One major design project 70%
The breakdown for the design project is as follows:
o Oral Presentation (10%)
o Prototype construction and test (30%)
o On-the-job performance (10%)
o Written Project Report (20%)
After completing this course, students should be able to:
