Lab equipment and editing your webpage for your lab report

2.The purpose of this lab was to introduce the equipment that will be used in subsequent labs by running tests on a breadboard.

3. Materials and Methods:
The power supply was connected to a breadboard. The outputed voltage from the power supply was then tested with a mulitmeter to confirm the values. Next two 1kohm resistors were added onto the breadboard. The circut was then broken and the multimeter was used to measure the current by connecting to the broken ends. Finally, the ocscilloscope was connected to the function generator and the voltage was measured from the highest point to the lowest on the sine function.

4. Results:


Figure 1: 5V delivered by the power supply.


Figure 2: 5.2V delivered by the power supply.

Figure 3: 5V reading from the breadboard by the multimeter

Figure 4: 2.1 mA current reading from the breadboard


Figure 5: 5V point to point oscilloscope reading from the function generator.

5. Discussion
    The expected current reading in figure 4 was calculated to be 2.5 mA, the reading of 2.1 mA. This error maybe due fluctuations at the time of the picture or user error connecting the terminals. This lab was usefull for introducing the differnet uses of each device as well as hands on experince with them.


The language in your report should be complete sentences. All the context should be in a story and readable.
