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.

Microelectronics Lab

The Microelectronics Lab contains a mix of computers and advanced equipment and instrumentation. Each workstation provides a computer, oscilloscope, multimeter, function generator, and DC power supply, and are large enough to allow students to work in teams. Additionally, a separate station provides additional equipment, including a research microscope, spectrum analyzers, and semiconductor parameter analyzers.

Microelectronics describes the study and manufacture of electronic components on a very small scale (commonly measured in micrometers or less). These devices are widely used in integrated circuits and other solid-state devices, and are an important part in the continuing trend of device miniaturization. Courses in the Microelectronics lab focus on the components and devices used and created in the field of microelectronics, and students gain hands-on experience designing actual electronic circuits, and use Cadence software to perform circuit design and simulation.
