Abstract
This should include a brief description of all three parts of the lab. The abstract should be complete in itself. It should summarize the entire lab; what you did, why you did it, the results and your conclusion. Think of it as a summary to include all work done. It has to be succinct but yet detailed enough for a person to know what this report deals with in its entirety.
Introduction
In your own words, motivate the experiment and give a concise summary of the theory involved, including any mathematical detail relevant to later discussion in the report. State the objectives of the lab as well as the overall background of the relevant topic.
Procedures
The procedure section provides the details of the experiment itself. What you briefly described in the introduction must now be made clear enough so that your reader could, if desired, repeat your experiment. This section should also include details about any modifications you had to make to get the experiment working. The procedures are usually written in the first-person narrative as opposed to second-person instructions. You will include in that section any schematic or circuit diagrams of the experimental setup.
Data Presentation & Analysis
This section is the most important section of the report. Data representations and analysis is crucial in the Engineering field. This section should include all raw data collected, e.g., voltage and current readings. All results are to be presented in both tabular and graphical form. All tables must have titles and all figures must have brief captions.

10 10 1kΩ
Conclusion
This section should reflect your understanding of the experiment conducted. Important points to include are a brief discussion of your final results, an interpretation of the actual experimental results as they apply to the objectives of the experiment set out in the introduction should be given. Also discuss any problems encountered and how they were resolved.
