Building Blocks to Analog Electronics
Operational amplifiers are the building blocks of analog electronics. If you are interested in audio, synthesisers, or adding analog sensors to digital circuits such as Arduino, you will want to learn about op-amps. In this workshop participants will learn the basics of op amps - including why they are called "op amps"!
You will learn how to deal with their special power supply requirements, learn about some of the more common op-amp circuit configurations, and be introduced to using an oscilloscope to visualize analog voltages.
Please note: This is an intermediate workshop. You need a basic understanding of Ohm's law and Kirchoff's law, and have the knowledge of building a simple circuit on a breadboard from a schematic on your own.

ACCESSIBILITY
We regret that at this time InterAccess does not have barrier-free access; we are currently working to improve the accessibility of all facilities. There are five steps up to our main entrance. Once inside all facilities are on the same level, and there is a single-user washroom inside the unit.
