(more…)Proper Tool Identification and Usage
The various CSE Labs are not set up 100% identically with tool sets yet. If tools are borrowed between labs, please put them back where they belong so that others may find them.
Below is a list of the types of tools that we have available, and where you may find them.
High-Power DC Power Supplies
The lab has accumulated a small supply of high power DC power supplies over time. While useful for high power projects, they must be checked out from the Lab Coordinator to ensure that the AC side of the power supply is wired properly and that all safety precautions are met.
Note that some items may not be available if they’ve been checked out already.
Benchtop DC Power Supplies
There are three models of DC Power Supplies available for use in the SD Labs:
Dr. Meter PS-305DM
Yihua YH302D
Tek Power TP3005T
