ETron Circuit Labs

Next Generation Education Curriculum

ETron has three different circuit labs: The Basics, The Basics LITE, and Digital Theory Lab. They have all been designed with the 21st century electronics student in mind. Fundamental theories and concepts underlie this STEM-compliant course firmly laying the groundwork for a solid understanding on basics electronic principles.

The Basics v2.0 Complete Lab

The Basics Complete Lab is a fully interactive guide that can be utilized for teaching an electronic education curriculum. There are 40 solderless labs that will teach about each component, how it works, and how it interacts with other components. This lab starts with the basics and progresses into more complex labs with exciting projects that will stimulate learning and exploration.

** Included are 40 labs, along with a components inventory to familiarize you with all the parts you will be using. In addition, there are over 16 pages of content and quizzes for the labs. Included are The Basics v2.0 manual, The Basics parts kit, Solderless Circuit Board, and 9-Volt Battery.
