LABORATORY INFRASTRUCTURE

The School has set up State-of-the-art laboratories, containing the latest equipment to ensure that the students get excellent facilities to thoroughly understand and explore the concepts of electronics as learnt in the class-room. Special laboratories have been set up in collaboration with Mult-National Giants Freescale Semiconductors & Xilinx Inc. Ltd.  These laboratories provide the students an opportunity to wok on industry standrad equipment and industry sponsored projects.  Experts from the industry conduct workshops and visit regularly for training the students and the faculty members.

The following laboratories are in use:

              

SMVDU Freescale Systems Laboratory

This lab is a collaborative lab established with support from Freescale Semiconductors Pvt. Ltd. (erstwhile Motorola Semiconductors) and contains state-of-art equipment and kits for learning and implementing the concepts pertaining to the latest 32 bit, 16-bit & 8-bit Microcontrollers & Microprocessors.  Students are exposed to the latest 32 bit ColdFire Arhitecture, 16-bit S12X Microcontroller Architecture, 8 bit 9S8 Architecture besides the traditional 8-bit Intel 8051 Microcontroller, 16-bit 8086 Microprocesor & the 8-bit 8085 Microprocessor architectures.  This lab is used extensively for conduct of Lab work and Project work by the students to create innovative projects using the sensors boards, Wirless Network Boards & Project Boards, all supplied by Freescale Semiconductors.  Freescale Semiconductor regularly conducts training programs for the faculty & students and also sponsors student projects.

Interface kits for studying real time equipment like DC Motors, Stepper Motors, LED Matrix, Traffic Light controls, A/D & D/A converters are used in the lab.
