This Unit is designed to enable candidates to gain knowledge of standard electronic test instruments and testing techniques. In addition, candidates will gain the opportunity to practice basic fault finding techniques.
On completion of this Unit, the candidate should be able to:

1. Make measurements safely and accurately in electronic circuits, using analogue and digital multimeters

2. Perform tests on electronic circuits safely and accurately, using oscilloscopes, function generators and frequency meters

3. Perform tests on digital circuits using a logic probe, pulse generator and multimeter.

4. Identify short circuit and open circuit faults in simple electronic circuits.
