Facilities

Ashling Microsystems Embedded Systems Lab
Electronic Engineering Lab
National Instruments Instrumentation and Control Lab
Ashling Microsystems Embedded Systems Lab

This is the largest electronics lab with 32 student work stations. This is where students write software and program microprocessors for their electronics projects. The projects are tested in real time by using state-of-the-art Ashling emulators.

Electronic Engineering Lab

This is a 16-seater lab, where all the hardware is built by the students for their projects. Here students design and make their own Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs).
Microprocessor chips, transistors, diodes, resistors and various other components are soldered by the students to their PCBs.

Instrumentation & Control Lab (National Instruments)

This Lab can be used to demonstrate current leading edge Mechatronics data acquisition technologies. It is configured around the LabVIEW Professional Development System.

This development system is designed specifically for developing high-end systems, working in teams, or adhering to stringent quality standards. It includes all the features of the Full Development System plus additional tools. It provides seamless integration with measurement hardware and code-generation tools to facilitate rapid development of data acquisition and analysis, instrument control, and data presentation solutions.

It also includes libraries for performing measurement analysis and digital signal processing, generating reports, displaying 3D plots, and calling external code through DLLs, ActiveX, and .NET objects. The Professional Development System also includes source code control, application complexity measurement utilities, and the LabVIEW Application Builder, with which you can create and distribute stand-alone executables and DLLs.
