Electronics Design
This week, we tested various equipment such as a multimeter, oscilloscope, and power supply to understand their functionality and accuracy. We also programmed an Arduino and analyzed its performance using both an oscilloscope and a multimeter. Through these tests, we observed voltage fluctuations, signal behavior, and power consumption. This hands-on experience helped us gain a deeper understanding of how these tools work together in electronics testing and troubleshooting.

Power Supply - Power supply provides a stable and controlled source of electrical power. It typically converts AC power from a wall outlet to DC power needed by electronic devices.
Work -
Providing power to electronic circuits during testing and development.
Powering electronic devices.
Testing device functionality under varying voltage and current conditions.
There are many different types of power supplies, with varying levels of complexity, and control.
Power supplies are what provide the electricity for the circuits that you are working on.
