Physics 536 Spring 2008 Project - Due April 25th Instructions: Pick a particular electronic component, device or small system, and prepare a 2-3 page report describing applications, operating principles, design considerations and examples. For example, if you selected lock-in amplifiers you would describe how they are used for making very low-noise current and voltage measurements on devices that are maintained at very low temperatures. You can use a variety of resources for picking a topic. Some suggestions are Physics Today Keithley Analog Devices Dallas/Maxim Semiconductors ATMEL Fairchild Semiconductor ON Semiconductor Vishay Texas Instruments AVX Corp.
