ECE 343: Electronic Circuits Lab

Useful Resources:

  • To access MATLAB on your personal device: MATLAB through MATLAB through Citrix

  • Please note that MATLAB through Citrix can only access the files in EWS Windows home directory.

Lab Assignments:

  • Labs must be completed individually.

  • Ensure that TA checks your work before you leave the lab.

  • Lab grade will be based on lab performance, demo, and correct completion of lab manual.

  • Demo is due at the beginning of lab on the demo date.

  • Please save all relevant plots / screenshots. You will need to include the scopy or lab equipment plots in your final submission.

  • Completed lab manual and scopy/lab equipment plots must be submitted on Canvas by the due date (1-week after the final demo for the lab). The final submission must include the completed lab manual and plots from either Scopy or lab equipment as one document. LTspice plots need not be submitted. Please ensure that your figures have titles that clearly specify the section and item number the figure belongs to.

  • Please note that course staff must be informed in advance in case you will be missing a lab. Only one make-up lab is allowed for the semester.
