Your lab grade for this session will be based solely on your registered attendance, so make sure that the TA knows your are here. And then learn from your mistake and don’t repeat the action that caused the problem.įor this lab, there is no pre-lab or lab report to turn in. Inform the TA at once if something bad happens. Accidents happen, and we will inevitably lose some multimeter fuses. Report all broken or malfunctioning equipment to the TA as soon as you notice it.ĮNGAGE your brain so that you don’t accidentally destroy or damage something. In particular do not (!) let cables drop on the floor, where they can be rolled over and destroyed.Īt the end of class, you are responsible for returning all cables back to the racks, for repacking your lab kit, and for cleaning up your lab station area. Get in the habit of keeping things tidy as you go along. Neatness is the key to lab success! If you don’t keep your workspace and your breadboard circuit as neat as possible, you will either ruin some necessary element of the experiment or take an unacceptably long time to complete the lab. The equipment is expensive and we have no spares, so an untimely spill could really impact students in many different courses. Banana-to-alligator power supply/signal cables, one black, one red These hang on a labeled rack at the end of the lab.These hang on a labeled rack at the end of the lab. Multimeter probe cables, one black, one red.Extech digital multimeter, obtained from the TA.Agilent E3631A Triple Output Power supply (at your lab station).You will require the following equipment for this lab: Measure current and voltage within a breadboard circuit.Use a multimeter to measure current while avoiding damage to the multimeter.Use a multimeter to measure resistance.This week we will learn to use and protect the multimeter, the power supply, and the basic breadboard, while also picking up the skill to read resistor codes.īy the end of this lab exercise, you should be able to do the following: While this graphic-intensive approach will occasionally be used in later lab descriptions, students will eventually be expected to proceed from written material, formulas, and circuit descriptions alone, without the explicit visual instructions provided by the photos. In this initial lab, photographs are frequently used to help students make the proper adjustments. The purpose of this first lab exercise for CMPE212 is to introduce the student to some basic equipment and instrumentation that will be used throughout the semester.
