LAB REPORT

 

Part 1: Image and Description of Tutorial 1

Before creating a schematic, a new library is created which is called Tutorial_1.

After creating a new library and a cell view called R_div, I drew out a resistor voltage divider circuit as instructed.

After checking and saving the schematic, I set up the transient analysis using the ADE L software with a stop time of 1 second. I also set wires "in" and "out" as output for the waveforms.

Part 2: Backup Method

For backing up files from this lab class, I will use OneDrive primarily.

Also, Google Drive will serve as a secondary backup.
