Lab 1: Solderless Breadboards, Open-circuits and Short-circuits Introduction: The purpose of this lab assignment is to provide users with an introduction to some of the equipment which will be used in subsequent lab assignments. We used breadboards and digital multimeters(DMM) to complete the lab activity. We examine the connections between different holes in a breadboard using a DMM as an ohmmeter. We see which connections correspond to open circuits and short circuits. We also use jumper wires to change the connectivity between holes on the breadboard. Procedure: 1. Using your DMM as an ohmmeter, connect the leads of the DMM to two holes in the same row on your breadboard. DMM measuring 0.5 Ohms. 2. Check the resistance between two rows of holes on opposite sides of the central channel of the breadboard. DMM measuring 1 Mega Ohms. 3. Check the resistance between two arbitrary holes (not in the same row) of your breadboard. DMM measuring 1 Mega Oh...
