The '''Microelectronics Lab''', like the Analog and Digital Circuits Lab, is another one of our most updated and advanced labs. Each workstation, save one, has a computer, flat panel monitor, oscilloscope, multimeter, function generator, and DC power supply for two partners to work at. The last workstation has a large microscope and a logic analyzer for the students to use. There is also a second logic analyzer for students to use if the first one is already being used.

ECE 302, Microelectronics, holds their laboratory sessions in the Microelectronics Lab. Microelectronics is the introduction to the physics of semiconductors such as PN Junctions, BJTs, and MOS field effect transistors, as well as differential and operational amplifiers. Each field will also be broken up into many sub-fields that will go into more detailed concepts of how microelectronics works. The laboratory sessions are used to reinforce the concepts discussed in class. Students also make use of the lab to use Cadence PSD and PSPICE Student Edition software.

The '''Integrated Circuit Design Lab''' contains 32 student workstations in order to accommodate courses with larger class sizes. Each workstation runs Red Hat's Enterprise Linux distribution and contains powerful current-generation hardware and the maximum amount of system memory, providing students with powerful and efficient machines to use for programming and simulation. These powerful machines and industry applications are provided thanks to the support of the ECE Department's industry partners, including Synopsys, Mentor Graphics, and Cadence.

Integrated Circuit Design Lab

The Integrated Circuit Design Lab contains 32 student workstations in order to accommodate courses with larger class sizes. Each workstation runs Red Hat's Enterprise Linux distribution and contains powerful current-generation hardware and the maximum amount of system memory, providing students with powerful and efficient machines to use for programming and simulation. These powerful machines and industry applications are provided thanks to the support of the ECE Department's industry partners, including Synopsys, Mentor Graphics, and Cadence.

Classes in this lab primarily focus on integrated circuits, a major foundation of modern electronics. Topics range from analog circuits to more complex concepts such as VLSI (very-large-scale integration) and ASIC (application specific integrated circuits). Students utitlize a wide range of softwares and tools as well as FPGA development hardware for assignments and projects that require computer modeling and simulation, debugging, and verification.
