Abstract

Practicality plays key roles in communication circuits course education. This paper addressed the development of a NI ELVIS II+ based experiment platform. This platform incorporated a large-area breadboard, a function generator, a portable power supply and an easy-to-use software interface. Students only need to get access to standard power outlets and PCs that are capable of running LabView (Student Edition) to carry out circuits design, construction, simulation, and test. The key feature is that we can bring the hands-on experiment into classroom through the Internet. When compared with traditional lecture-only courses, this unit makes the theoretical learning incorporated with the hands-on experiments. The students found the education style to be especially effective, which would stimulate their desire to learn. The result of this work applied clear merits to the idea that the comprehensive laboratory platform would greatly enhance learning experience in electrical and computer engineering curriculum.
