This lab manual, like no other, connects circuits to electronics and encourages students to explore, rather than asking them to blindly follow measurement procedures. It attempts to make the lab interesting, by incorporating in it real applications which the students can relate to.

Written by an award-winning educator and researcher, the experiments in this book have been extensively tested and fine-tuned in numerous lab sessions over four years. A lab using this text can run concurrently with the first circuits course, since the text provides self-contained background for all electronics experiments. The text pays special attention to intuition, and can help excite the students about electrical engineering and motivate their further study in circuits, electronics, communications, and semiconductor devices.

Intended for an introductory lab in circuits and electronics.
