Objective

This is the first laboratory that the ECE students will encounter. All ECE students will receive a series of systematic and fundamental training so that they feel comfortable in using some of basic equipment such as power supply, multimeter, function generator,oscilloscope and etc. In this laboratory, several series of experiments for Applied Electronics, Digital Systems, Signals & Systems, Circuit Analysis, Measurements and Instrumentations will be completed.
