industrial
electronic controls. Emphasis is
placed on solid state motor
controls,
programmable
logic
controllers, velocity control and
position control. Skills emphasized
are
in
set
up,
operation,
programming and testing of these
types of equipment.
Lab Objective:
•
To equip students with
knowledge about operation
characteristics and major
application areas of modern
power
semiconductor
devices
and
associated
power converters.
•
To give them an ability to
design and choose such
systems
for
various
industrial applications.
Lab Equipment:
1) Scan Lab System panel
equipped with
Resistive, capacitive
and inductive load
units
One AC and one DC
machine both of which
can run as motor or
generator
Brake control unit to
operate with separately
excited DC machine
2) Cathode-RayOscilloscopes
3) Dual DC Power Supplies
(30 volts)
4) Analog Multimeter
5) Digital Multimeter
6) Pentium IV PCs (3 GHz
CPU, 256 MB RAM)
Lab Staff:
Supervisor:
Syed Mansoor Ali Shah
Lab Assistant:

Laboratory Work:
Laboratory work is done by
groups of five students. Each
group has to carry out four
experiments. Each experiment
starts with a quiz to measure
the readiness of the student to
do the experiment. Report is
required for each experiment.
Two Research Assistants / Lab
Engineers are allocated by the
Department to supervise the
laboratory work.
