Focus:
The Microelectronics Laboratory has a dual focus of providing basic courses in electronics technology for all students and R&D opportunities for advanced students. The basic courses in electronics technology are offered as semester electives at two different levels: Analog Electronics and Digital Electronics at Level I; Microprocessor Systems and Audio Electronics at Level II. The R&D opportunities for advanced students are available to students who have taken two basic electronics technology courses. The main areas for engineering research and development currently are: arrayed sensors, advanced linear, mixed-signal, and instrumentation.
