PCBs!!!!!!!!! This class teaches the basics of Printed-Circuit-Board (PCB) schematic design, layout engineering, population, and debugging. General engineering design principals provide a base for learning for the entire class, hands-on education is also stressed through lab components.

Intuition-based introduction to electronics, electronic components and test equipment such as oscilloscopes, meters (voltage, resistance inductance, capacitance, etc.), and signal generators. Emphasizes individual instruction and development of skills, such as soldering, assembly, and troubleshooting. Students design, build, and keep a small electronics project to put their new knowledge into practice. Intended for students with little or no previous background in electronics.

Here, you’ll learn the application of electronic flash sources to measurement and photography. The first half of the course covers the fundamentals of photography and electronic flashes, including experiments on the application of electronic flash to photography, stroboscopy, motion analysis, and high-speed videography. Students write five extensive lab reports.
