I. General Information
1. Course Title:
Industrial Electronics Lab I
2. Course Prefix & Number:
RAST 1111
3. Course Credits and Contact Hours:
Credits: 2
Lecture Hours: 0
Lab Hours: 4
4. Course Description:
This course covers hands-on skills in basic electronics. A protoboard is used in conjunction with several pieces of test equipment to build and measure circuit parameters. The laboratory exercises reinforce the related concepts covered in the companion theory course. The laboratory procedures give the student basic test and measurement techniques.
