Labs

There is one dedicated 2-hour lab each week (Fridays, 13-15, in E:4116 - see notes for exceptions). However, you will need to spend a lot more time in the labs on your own in order to carry out your projects. The Xilinx synthesis tools and Digilent support tools are available for Windows.

NOTE: The scheduled lab hours are only intended as a way of meeting me and ask me questions. I will also check your progress. There are NO LAB ASSIGNMENTS - you should still be working on your projects during these times.

NOTE: Lab session schedule exceptions

  • The lab session on Friday 2017-09-15, is in E:4116 from 10-12 (same room, different time)
  • The lab session on Friday 2017-10-06, is in E:4115 from 13-15 (different room, same time)
