P1 Project List. Tutorial and Example Projects Discussed in Class

P1 project list. Tutorial and example projects discussed in class For simplicity, we’ve been using all the time the Circuit_W. However, it is recommended to repeat the project for Circuit_C, Circuit_K, etc. Remember that you must study up to 5h out of class.

Once the project is tested and verified (after section 4), the project must be reported or documented in sheets of paper or word processor, using text, schematics, tables, equations, diagrams, flow charts, time diagrams, etc.
