Electronics Teaching Labs

Introduction

This is the Electronics Lab for teaching use in the school. There are currently three labs available:

• Electronics Lab A (EM319)
• Electronics Lab B (EM318)
• Electronics Lab C (EM305)

The labs are currently set up with identical base test equipment, consisting of a 3 channel power supple, a 2 channel arbitrary waveform generator, a 2 channel digital storage oscilloscope and a computer. In addition, Labs A&B have additional soldering equipment and electronic whiteboards, while Lab C is set up for RF type practicals.
