ENGR V16L — Electronic Circuits Laboratory
This course is an introduction to the construction and measurement of electrical circuits. Basic use of electrical test and measurement instruments including multimeters, oscilloscopes, power supplies, and function generators is covered. Use of circuit simulation software is presented. Interpretation of measured and simulated data based on principles of circuit analysis for DC, transient, and sinusoidal steady-state (AC) conditions is covered, as well as elementary circuit design. Practical considerations, such as component value tolerance and non-ideal aspects of laboratory instruments, are explained. Construction and measurement of basic operational amplifier circuits is demonstrated.
