An Undergraduate Laboratory for the Design and Manufacture of Electronic Products

该项目将一个以印刷电路板为基础的制造设施改造成一个集成设计和制造电子产品的实验室。具体来说，本实验的设计内容将会扩展到电路的逻辑和物理设计、可靠性分析、制造工艺设计和生命周期成本。此外，制造内容扩展到包括CAM、质量和过程控制以及生产控制等活动。这些教育目标是通过增加设计，分析和控制软件，材料，机械和电气测试硬件（提供设计和过程反馈）来实现的。

The project converts a printed circuit board-based manufacturing facility into a laboratory for the integrated design and manufacture of electronic products. Specifically, the design content of this lab is expanded by considering the logical and physical design of the circuit, reliability analyses, manufacturing process design, and life-cycle costing. In addition, the manufacturing content is expanded to encompass activities such as CAM, quality and process control, and production control. These educational objectives are obtained by adding design, analysis & control software, and material, mechanical and electrical testing hardware (to provide design and process feedback) to an already substantial equipment base.
