Labs Currently Deployed
The Obafemi Awolowo has over the last four years, developed and deployed five laboratories. Three of these are batched iLabs, one is a batched iLabSim and the last one is an interactive iLab.. The laboratories which are currently on-stream are:
- Operational Amplifiers Laboratory (batched iLab)
- Advanced Digital Laboratory (batched iLab)
- Strength of Materials Laboratory (batched iLabSim)
- Robotics Laboratory (interactive iLab)
One more lab which was deployed by the OAU iLab team, but which has been retired is the Logic Lab. It was retired early in 2009, having served its "useful life".
Op-Amp Lab
The Operational Amplifier Laboratory, op-amp Lab for short, is an experiment which demonstrates the inverting and non-inverting configurations of a simple operational amplifier. Students are required to connect the op-amp in either the inverting or non-inverting configuration, feed in an input to the amp and measure the output from the setup.
Advanced Digital Laboratory
Strength of Materials Laboratory
Robotics Lab
Logic Laboratory
In the Logic Lab, the De Morgan's equivalent of a simple logic circuit is demonstrated. The experiment comprises making two connections on two separate circuits, feeding the same input into both circuits and observing the output to see if the outputs match. One of the circuits is based a simple logic expressiona and the other is the De Morgan's equivalent. If the student is correct about the De Morgan's equivalent, both output waveforms should match exactly. Not otherwise.
