ECE 201L Circuit Analysis Laboratory
Prelab 1
This lab provides experience with resistors and multimeter measurements.
- Bring your laptop computer to the lab
- Look up the terms Resistor, Multimeter, and Breadboard on the internet. Be prepared to discuss,
describe, and demonstrate what you have learned.
- If you wanted to buy resistors, a multimeter, and a small electronics breadboard, how much would you likely spend and
where would you buy them from?
- Given the following set of numbers, use Excel to find the average, the standard deviation, the median, and the 10-90% range.
