With the rapid introduction of ICs in modern electronics a good understanding of digital and linear ICs are considered necessary, as these ICs constitute the alphabet of computers and instrumentation. Evaluating the designed circuit for its intended performance is an important criterion. In order to facilitate the above requirement, the Electronic Design Experimenter is designed. This instrument has facilities to conduct the same. The circuit components often constitute resistors, capacitors, ICs etc. You can construct your circuit design on the breadboard provided with the instrument, without soldering. Specifications: - It has two variable IC-regulated power supplies, and one fixed 5V regulated power supply.
- Independent variable power source adjustable from +1.2V to +15V @ 500mA.
- Independent variable power source adjustable from - 1.2V to –15V @ 500mA. For energizing NPN-PNP transistors & Op-amps etc.
- +5V fixed source @ 1A (for powering digital ICs).
- It has two signal sources i.e., Sine and Square waves. The frequency / repetition rate is variable between 200Hz to 20,000Hz. The amplitude can be varied between 100mV to 10V(p/p)
- It has a TTL-compatible 1Hz clock output, 1Hz is derived from mains frequency.
- It has a center-tapped 15VAC-0-15VAC outputs from a transformer and two independent potentiometers of 1K and 100K ohms (for conducting experiments, using half, full and bridge rectifiers and voltage multipliers) etc.
- A solderless breadboard is available to construct simple experiments. All transistors, ICs and components are plugged into the sockets pins of the breadboard. Each socket pins is connected to four more sockets internally. Interconnections are made by hook up wires of 0.3mm to 0.8mm diameter. The breadboard accepts transistors, resistors, capacitors, ICs, etc. The leads should not be thicker than 22 SWG.
- This instrument is housed in an elegant, strong and sloping cabinet.
