Gear teardowns

Assignment for Monday:

1. Get a toolkit (if you don't already have one).
2. Read Chapters 1 and 2 in "Troubleshooting Analog Circuits" by Bob Pease.
3. Discuss the autopsy/teardown candidates with your lab partner (see exhibits A through Z in the administrative handout).
4. Review the assigned teardowns at iFixit and send me an email with a link to your favorite one, with a short explanation of why it's your favorite. For example explanations, see last year's favorites.
5. Watch the following video (a teardown of an Anritsu spectrum analyzer from Mike's Electric Stuff; see his YouTube channel for more videos).

Good stuff.
