Evaluation:

·         Lab 2 due 7 or 9 September.

·         Chapter 1 Homework and Extra Credit due 8 September.

·         Chapter 2 Homework and Extra Credit due 13 September.

·         Unit 1 Test – 17 September (on Chapters 1, 2, & 3).

 

 

Note:

·         Labs will be performed in teams of two or individually until further notice.

·         Demonstrate proper operation of the above experiments to your instructor.

·         Starting with Lab 2, we will be using solderless protoboards (aka breadboards) to build our circuits.  These, along with needle-nosed piliers, wirestripper, wire cutter and a wire kit, were issued to students in EET2241, Digital Electronics and Microprocessor Fundamentals.  Remaining students will be issued this kit next week in lab.
