ECE101 – INTRODUCTION TO ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
FINAL PROJECT
INDIVIDUAL PROJECT
Your individual project will be comprised of you performing something called “reverse engineer-
ing”. Your assignment is to find a technical device or system that is either broken or is no longer
in use. This device or system is to be opened and examined for all components that ares con-
nected inside the package. Your task is to observe these components, make a list of them, and
then speculate on the role of each as how they worked together to give the device or system its
operational characteristics. Do not perform any research on your item or make any attempt to fix
or repair it. These activities shall be written in a report that is due in my office or JD4509 by 4pm
May 13, 2015. You may email the report as long as I receive it prior to the deadline for submis-
sion. The report shall be written in the form discussed in class and can be found on our course
moodle site.
GROUP PROJECT
The group project is to simulate and build the following amplifier circuit shown on the next page.
Each group shall have no more than 4 members and have the following tasks:
Team Member 1 – Circuit Simulation
Team Member 2 – Circuit Construction
Team Member 3 – Circuit Testing
Team Member 4 – Circuit Testing
Where there are less than 3 members in a particular group, one shall be responsible for circuit
simulation while the other is responsible for circuit construction and testing.
The following are the circuit and specifications:

TPX ≡ Test Points. Measure and record waveform characteristics at these points.
All simulations shall be run according to the following specifications:
Analysis Type: Time Domain (Transient)
Run to time: 5ms (5 milliseconds)
Maximum step size: 10us (10 microseconds)
Input voltage source: VSIN

The circuit shall be built or constructed on a breadboard with power, signal, and ground appro-
priately connected and applied. All resistors used shall be measured with the ohmmeter and rec-
orded. These same resistor values shall be used in the final circuit simulation. The amplitude of
all voltages in the circuit shall be measured and recorded during the bench testing. The use of cell
phone, smart phone, or regular digital cameras is encouraged, not required, for recording signals
from the oscilloscope. A report on all activities is due in my office or in JD4509 on Wednesday
May 13, 2015 by 4pm. The names of all group members should be printed and signed on the
first page (cover) of the report along with their responsible function(s). Good Luck and be crea-
tive!
