Integrated Circuit Design Shared Lab

Introduction

Our department has established a comprehensive Integrated Circuit (IC) Design Shared Laboratory, providing students with a high-performance computing environment and professional IC design software to support courses and project research related to chip and system design. Students can utilize a unified platform within on-campus computer classrooms to conduct simulations and design work. This enables them to learn the complete chip development process, cultivate practical skills that align seamlessly with the semiconductor industry, and lay a solid foundation for future advanced studies and employment.

CYCU NVIDIA AI Cloud Platform

Introduction

Chung Yuan Christian University has established an NVIDIA High-Performance Computing (HPC) resource cluster, integrating multiple GPU servers and a high-speed network storage system to provide the essential computing environment for artificial intelligence and big data research. Managed by a Kubernetes container platform, the system supports development tools such as PyTorch, TensorFlow, and Jupyter, enabling faculty and students to conduct model training and data analysis. Currently open to the entire university for application, it has become a crucial computing platform for promoting AI research and cross-disciplinary teaching.

Electronic Circuit Lab

Introduction

The Electronic Circuit Laboratory is a vital teaching space in our department. It is equipped with 60 comprehensive sets of electronic experimental equipment—including signal generators, power supplies, digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, and computers—providing a one-to-one hands-on environment for every student. The laboratory primarily supports core professional requirements and related elective courses, such as Electronics Experiments, Circuit Experiments, Microprocessor Experiments, Analog Circuit Experiments, and Logic Design and Experiments. This laboratory was established with the sponsorship of alumnus Shu-Liang Hsieh and collaborates with major technology enterprises such as Intel and Texas Instruments.

Robotics and Control Application Lab

Introduction

The Robotics and Control Applications Laboratory is our department’s hands-on teaching space dedicated to the field of robotics and automation. It primarily supports elective courses such as Control Experiments, Robotic Arm PBL (Project-Based Learning) Projects, and Robotic Arm Practices and Applications. The laboratory is equipped with multiple control experiment modules and features a six-axis industrial robotic arm donated by Epson. It provides students with training in hands-on operation and system integration, enabling them to learn control theory and robotics applications through practical experience, and cultivating their technical skills in smart manufacturing and automation.

Energy Technology Demonstration and R&D Testbed

Introduction

Established in response to the 2050 net-zero and energy transition trends, the Energy Technology Demonstration and R&D Practice Site leverages the university’s foundational research in power and energy alongside Taoyuan’s industrial clusters to create an ‘hourly net-zero’ verification and demonstration platform. The facility encompasses research in AI energy management, virtual power plants (VPP), and energy storage systems. Additionally, it is equipped with teaching facilities for solar power, wind power, and smart grids. By integrating corporate collaborations with hands-on courses, the site aims to cultivate professional talent equipped with expertise in new energy technologies and smart grids.

Design House

Introduction

Design House is our department’s open hands-on electronic circuit laboratory. Its equipment is identical to that of the professional electronic circuit labs used for regular classes, featuring a comprehensive set of experimental electronic equipment, including signal generators, power supplies, digital multimeters, oscilloscopes, and computers. The laboratory is primarily intended for students to complete make-up experiments after class, conduct project research, and engage in self-directed learning. Operating 24 hours a day, it offers flexible access for currently enrolled Electrical Engineering students, enabling them to continuously hone their circuit design and practical skills.
