Welcome

Welcome to the ECEU401 Website.  Let us begin with a personal comment.  When I first learned electronics, I used (completely by accident) two different learning methods:  On one hand, I assembled radios and audio equipment from the "hobby kits" that were common in those days, mostly by following directions without fully understanding them.  On the other hand,  I bought basic electronic components and learned to put them together by trial and error.  Sometimes the errors were quite spectacular!  This course has been carefully designed by previous faculty members in our department, to give you much the same experience:  There are activities where you will mostly follow the directions and later learn the principles behind them in your courses.  There also times for exploring and observing with only limited directions.  The topics have been chosen carefully, to expose you to most of the concepts, components, and test equipment that you will see throughout your careers in Electrical and Computer Engineering.  Now in my everyday research, these are the tools of my trade.  I hope you will enjoy learning them in this lab and using them as I have.  Welcome to the lab.--Chuck DiMarzio


As of January 6th, 2007, this website is still a work in progress.  The first six lab experiments will remain largely unchanged, but the pages are still being updated.  Before arriving for lab the first day, (A) print out the instructions for lab 1, (B) buy a lab notebook, and (C) complete the pre-lab activities in the instructions. --S. W. McKnight, 6 January, 2007

The labs have all been updated and the html and pdf files should now be equivalent. All of them should have a Jan 2007 "updated" date. --S. W. McKnight, 25 January, 2007.

Relevant information has been updated on Setp. 7, 2007 for Fall 2007 Semester.
