    Project Csignal was initiated during the COVID-19 pandemic when in-person laboratory sessions were not possible due to the restrictions imposed to curb the spread of the virus. At the time students couldn’t come to campus for the lab. The objective of the project was to design and develop a device (termed Csignal), which could be used by the students for laboratory exercises at their homes. Csignal is essentially an integration of three essential pieces of equipment used in the laboratory, namely, a power supply, a function generator, and an oscilloscope. These three pieces of equipment are what students used at the lab to power and test their circuits. The primary aim of this project is to create a cost-effective version of these three devices, which can be combined into a single compact component. While the Csignal will not offer the same level of functionality as the main devices in the laboratory, it will be adequate to suffice the students' needs for conducting laboratory experiments from their homes. Moreover, the Csignal will be compact and portable, making it more convenient for the students to use and store.
