    Overview

    Laboratory projects that explore key ideas in modern electronics for collecting, transmitting, and processing information represented as electrical signals.

    This laboratory paper consists of a number of experimental tasks, or 'labs'. Two final labs explore high-level systems production using the Arduino platform.
