BRG321 & 310C,D - MICROELECTRONIC PROTOTYPING AND TESTING (MPT) LAB

The Microelectronics Prototyping and Testing (MPT) Lab is a high-tech shared research lab for graduate and undergraduate capstone project students in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science department at York University. It provides students and staff with hands-on experience in the design and test of a wide variety of prototype electronic systems hardware.

MPTL thus supports a broad range of traditional course offerings as well as teaching formats unique to the Lassonde School. The wide spectrum of applications addressed by MPTL’s prototyping capabilities includes the most relevant technologies in electrical engineering today: wireless communications, computing, control, sensing, and medical devices etc.

As such MPTL serves all the needs of the EECS and its intention to provide an immersive and unique teaching environment to its students. Its circuit fabrication capability includes board construction and population with both off-the-shelf and microsystem components. At the same time, its probing facilities couple precise testing of microsystem components with automated infrastructure for handling large class sizes.

These facilities thus allow for the rapid construction of board-level systems for an extended array of uses including microwave, instrumentation, and embedded computing. This resource is used not only for the fabrication of educational tools and demonstration components unique to the Lassonde school, but also gives our students the opportunity to construct custom electronic designs as part of courses, project work and entrepreneurial pursuits.

The Microelectronics Prototyping and Testing (MPT) Lab is located at 3rd floor in bergeron center for engineering excellence (BRG) building at York University Keele campus. MPT lab includes Microelectronics Design and Characterization (MDC) Lab (BRG321) and Rapid Prototyping Support (RPS) Lab (BRG310C,D) and both are located on 3rd floor of the Bergeron Building.

Both the MDC lab and RPS lab are secured by authorized card access. The students will get access to the labs once they complete their health & safety training and authorized by the lab management based on supervisor’s recommendation. Students will have 24/7 card access to the research facilities. For any technical support, please contact below:
