EL 209 – Lab Project

Instructors: Khalid Ejaz, Muhammad Arif Saeed, Fahimullah Khanzada, Salman Khaliq

The aim of the project is to select/design, study by simulation/theoretically, build, test and document a
small interesting electronic application. The project work should be a valuable opportunity to apply
knowledge and experience gained through lectures and lab experiments in a real-life electronic circuit.
Due to constraints of time, projects should be simple and involve only commonly available circuit
components.

The final grade (40%) of the projects depends on how much is done out of the following tasks.

Instructions

1) Work out the project in groups of three (unless stated exclusively).

2) The students need to register their interests in the list place with lab attendant of
Instruments Lab.

3) The projects must be implemented by students on their own. However, they can
seek guidance regarding schematic design.

4) Inform the instructor upon successful completion of project. For testing the work an
appointment for delivering presentation need to be made.

5) Any further improvements to the project, even in the form of ideas, will be
considered in grading.
