Sr. # Course Learning Outcomes Assessment
There is a Laboratory component in all 3+1 credit courses taught at the department. Lab work consists of a minimum of 12 experiments and related assignments, which constitute 25% of the overall course‐ grade. The laboratory experiments include hands‐on exercises as well as computer analysis. This course familiarizes the students with the circuit analysis program called SPICE through laboratory experiments.
The electronics laboratories are equipped with workbenches and computers to facilitate the experiments outlined in the lab handbook(s) that are periodically updated. The list of software and equipment available is also posted in all labs and is managed by staff dedicated for this purpose. The software required for the course is available online for free download.
The department has computer labs that have recommended software installed. For the purposes of this course the circuit analysis program SPICE will be used.

PLO 1‐ Engineering Knowledge:
Calculations in the circuit analysis along with device modeling using ideal, linear and exponential models creates in‐depth knowledge of semiconductor devices. Problem sessions will increase the ability to apply mathematics on the construction of diode, zener diodes, BJT and FET devices.
PLO 2‐ Problem Analysis:
Students are encouraged to first preform the literature survey, collect the data and then analyze the aspects related to the output of systems. Various different circuits having components like Resistor, diode and capacitor, are explored and analyzed in the class room and finally the students are tested for the analysis of different circuits. Quiz and assignments are helpful in the testing process along with the sessionals. The topics related to this learning objective are clippers, clampers, rectifiers, zener diodes, voltage regulators and switches.
PLO4 – Investigation:
The ability to design and conduct experiments, analyse/interpret results and deduce informed conclusions is developed in the students through multiple open‐ended labs.
PLO 10‐ Communication:
In the lab setup the students are asked to perform the experiment and take the data. This collected data is analyzed by the student and finally the conclusion comprehended by the student is required in the report format. The students are also given chance to present some new finding in the presentation format also. (High relevance to course)
