Introduction
Has there ever been a better time to call electronics fascinating? We doubt it.The field is making exhilarating progress in areas ranging from wireless communications and chip designing to biomedical diagnostics, with implications that will be felt in our everyday lives.
To further prove our point we bring along this Shaastra a Hands-on electronics event which requires no prior preparation and registration. Just turn up at the right venue!!!!
All that you require is knowledge of basic electronics and simple electrical circuits.
Participants note: Event Format has been changed
Event Format
Preliminary Round
- It will be a written round.
- It will consist of puzzles, jumbled circuits etc. which will test participants for sufficiency of
knowledge to compete in the 2nd round. The questions will cover both the areas of
electronics- digital and analog. Two hours will be provided for this round.
Final Round
- It will be a hands on round.
- 8 teams will be selected for the final round on the

-
The final round will have two parts. Two hours will be provided for
the completion of each part, with a 15 minutes break in between the
two parts.
-
The final round will be a combination of Analog and Digital Challenges. It will involve implementation of a tricky circuit having a real life application.
- In the allotted time of 4 hours, the teams have to implement the given circuit on the breadboard. All circuit components will be provided.
Rules and regulations
- Students with a valid id card from any college are eligible to participate.
- Each team shall consist of at most two members.
- Points will be assigned to the teams on the basis of:
- On completion, the final circuit has to work for all the test cases.
- It shall be judged on the basis of its efficiency, simplicity and ability to fulfill criterion given in the problem statement.
