EIIT Lab

hai hai

I am now in the Electronics Instruments and Instrumentation Technology (EIIT) Lab . I found this comp which was offered for interfacing the microprocessor to the measuring instruments with a LAN connection . Unfortunately the LAN was disconnected . With a good deal of toiling , i sumhw managed to get a patch chord and got myself connected . yoyoyo!!!! i m browsing the net now . Since blogspot was blocked in the hostel , my joy knew no bounds when blogspot worked in the LAB . The lab is deserted with no faculties inside and a lonely "smart" lab assistant who is just a couple of years ( i doubt that ) elder than me desperately watching us browsing . Some of the dejected boys who didnt get the output were busy browsing orkut while a couple of my frds visited the Insti Cafe ( IC ) to break the morning fast . Today we are supposed to learn the role of microprocessor (VIK 8080) in the control of measuring devices ( ADC , LVDT and steppermotor ) .The concept was quite interesting - you control the working( reduce or increase speed , switch ON and OFF ) of various intruments using your keyboard . The last experiment was something similar to the current one but we hard a very hard time comprehending the current expt . Even Dr.D.B .S was not present in the lab for our rescue . We watched in despair Dr.Singh enjoying his usual viva-screwing , browsed through the page long program code again and again and ended up writing the "so called " report of the expt which we never did . Its high time the System of Education changed . The authorities should try to make the lab sessions "learning oriented " rather than being a machinelike execution of comands /instructions given in the manual .
