Training in Analogue Electronics using the EDU-LABS DIDACTIC Components Plug-in System
STE-6000
From a simple resistor to a highly integrated microchip, advanced training in electronics requires that the basic underlying principles are mastered completely. It is also necessary to establish the link between theory and practice as soon as possible. Bridging this gap is an important task, especially when it comes to mastering such complex technologies as those in the field of modern electrical engineering and electronics.
Using this system a wide range of experiments and circuits can be investigated in the areas of Analogue Electronics. These areas are divided into topic groups and arranged to prepare the student for progressively higher training goals. Each topic group is accompanied by an set of the same name for conducting experiments.
The Universal Plug-in Board
The universal plug-in board is necessary for all experiments and circuits used in the STE-6000 for analog electronics. The symmetrical arrangement of the socket areas, containing 9 electrically interconnected 4-mm sockets, makes possible the use of plug-in elements of different sizes with pin spacing of 19 mm, 50 mm and 100 mm. Contact resistance is less than 5 x 10-3 Ohm, permitting currents up to 10 A. Because of the low capacitance of 1.5 pF between adjoining areas, the universal boards are also suitable for experiments with high frequency circuits well into the MHz range.
The Plug-in Elements
The 2- and 4-terminal plug-in element consists of a transparent housing with a detachable front plate, and specially designed long-life plugs. Thus the built-in components are visible and can be easily replaced should they be damaged. The component symbols on the front allow for a close correspondence between circuit diagram and assembled circuit.
The plug-in elements are available in the following sizes:
• Plug-in element 2/19 with 2 pins
• Plug-in element 2/50 with 2 pins
• Plug-in element 4/50 with 4 pins
• Plug-in element 4/100 with 4 pins
This facilitates the transition from circuit diagrams in instruction books to self-designed circuits, as well as the listing of experiment set-ups, and encourages thinking, learning and experimenting in terms of circuit diagrams.
To aid the successful performance of experiments on analogue electronics, detailed experiment descriptions for students and accompanying information for instructors are available.
Literature
The manuals for each topic group begin with a description of components, units and abbreviations used, as well as an introduction, to the topics. The experiments are described according to well proven didactical principles in the form of student's work sheets and teacher's notes. In addition, solution sheets are available to the teacher.
