This guest is the focus of a one-hour round table discussion(Q&A) that is conducted by the student team to create a learning experience for the class.In the past, most guests were from engineering/technical companies, but on one occasion,the embedded student arranged to have a successful entrepreneur from a non-technicalenvironment participate in the session. Allowing the technology students to appreciatemore diverse perspectives also has added value to their undergraduate education.The final deliverable of the first course of the E4/Capstone Design Project is a FormalTechnical Proposal (FTP).

generates its own carrier signal. Thecircuit operates due to the action of the message signal driving the bias point of the Page 13.367.7oscillating transistor. As the amplitude of the message signal varies, the oscillationfrequency varies proportionally, thus creating an FM signal. To operate, this circuitrequires an appropriately High-Q inductor-capacitor pair (L1 and C2). Additionally, thevariable capacitor C2 controls the oscillator frequency, which roughly supports a centerfrequency range of 80–120 MHz.This circuit uses a fairly low-level message signal amplitude of less than 100 Vrms . If sodesired, the output level of the FM signal can be varied by
