Prerequisite EE 1102, Co-requisite: EE 3310
Lab Manual You can download it from the course homepage.
Grading Lab Reports (no attendance no credit) 50 %
Pre-lab Reports 20 %
Instructor Verifications (results, participation, lab attitude) 20 %
Miscellaneous (workstation cleanliness, etc.) 10 %
Class rules and 1. No eating, drinking, or smoking in the labs.
regulations 2. A group of two (or max. three) people will make a team. Lab reports must be
prepared individually.
3. There is no credit for any missing lab session.
4. You have to clean up the workstation after you finish your lab session. All equipment
should be placed just as before your use. All parts should be in as original shape (Make
sure you straighten up all the wires and legs of parts using pliers so that next group of
students won’t have problem with parts.) as possible and placed in the right place.
5. There will be a peer-review process at the end of the semester, so that each student
can evaluate his/her team members. Peer evaluation will affect the final grading.
Catalog EE 3110 Electronic Devices Laboratory (1 semester hour) Laboratory to accompany
