Laboratory Explorations to Accompany Microelectronic Circuits

Seventh Edition

Vincent C. Gaudet and Kenneth C. Smith

Publication Date - November 2014

ISBN: 9780199339259

120 pages
Paperback
8 x 10 inches

Concise, clear experiments--designed with varying levels of difficulty and to be completed in a single lab period--that are tied directly to Sedra/Smith's "learn by doing" approach.

Description

Designed to accompany Microelectronic Circuits, Seventh Edition, by Adel S. Sedra and Kenneth C. Smith, Laboratory Explorations invites students to explore the realm of real-world engineering through practical, hands-on experiments.

Taking a "learn-by-doing" approach, it presents labs that focus on the development of practical engineering skills and design practices. Experiments start from concepts and hand analysis, and include simulation, measurement, and post-measurement discussion components. A complete solutions manual is also available to adopting instructors.

Contact your Oxford University Press sales representative for information on how to package Laboratory Explorations with Microelectronic Circuits, Seventh Edition, for great savings!

Features

  • Includes clear and concise experiments of varying levels of difficulty
  • Challenging "Extra Exploration" sections follow each experiment
  • Each experiment is conveniently designed to fit into a single lab period and can be completed using minimal equipment
  • Also compatible with National Instrument's myDAQ, giving students the opportunity to complete assignments outside of the traditional lab environment
