Labs Currently Deployed

The Obafemi Awolowo has over the last four years, developed and deployed two laboratories (a third will be deployed within the next couple of days). The laboratories which are currently on-stream are:

1. Operational Amplifiers Laboratory
2. Logic LaboratoryThe 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.
   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.

   Labs Almost Ready for Deployment

   One laboratory will be deployed within the next couple of weeks. It is called the Advanced Digital Laboratory. This lab would be based on an FPGA and the student would be required to program the FPGA to perform specified functions.

   Labs Still in The Womb

   Both labs which have been developed and deployed are based on the iLab Batched Architecture and were deployed on National Instrument's ELVIS. Some other laboratories which are still been developed would run on the iLab Interactive Architecture. These labs are being developed using LabVIEW in order to exploit the richness of the LabVIEW front panel and reduce time-to-deployment as less work is done on the client.
