Solid State Challenge Version 4.0

This educational program consists of twelve computer-based activities to help you teach basic solid state circuit concepts and troubleshooting. Realistic troubleshooting activities are included in this set of activities. The activities are designed to supplement classroom instruction, textbook assignments and computer tutorials. New component values and circuit parameters are generated each time an activity is used. This increases interest and prevents simple memorization. Activities are graded and scored immediately to reinforce and encourage learning. Context sensitive help is available to provide formulas and procedures in most exercises. Grades can be stored on diskettes or printed at the conclusion of each activity. This program is for use on computers running Windows 98, 95 or NT. Activity titles included in the program are Basic Diode Testing, Basic Transistor Testing, Common Emitter Amplifiers One (Base Bias), Common Emitter Amplifiers Two (Voltage Divider Bias), Common Emitter Amplifiers Three ( with Emitter Bypass), Common Collector Amplifiers, Common Base Amplifiers, Class B Power Amplifiers One, Class B Power Amplifiers Two, Class B Power Amplifiers Three ( with Darlington connections), Troubleshooting Simple Amplifiers and Troubleshooting Common Emitter Amplifiers.
