  Refer to the 
  ECE 
  Homework Format for a general description of the proper format of your 
  formal report. Work that deviates significantly from the format may need to be 
  resubmitted (and be subject to late penalties).
The fundamental purposes of the report are: (a) to describe the specific 
  design and principles of operation of your ADC system, (b) to present and 
  discuss your ADC performance data, and (c) to provide thorough documentation 
  of your design.
Your report must include the following items in the order indicated:  
  |  | Title Page: Include all relevant information (project title, your 
  names, campus mail, date, course number, etc.) |  |  | Executive Summary (or Abstract): Write a one-paragraph 
  overview of the report on its own page. Clearly state your main results. You 
  should be able to “tear off” the executive summary, hand it to someone to 
  read, and they should be able to understand the purpose and key results of 
  your project without ever reading the report itself. |  |  | Table of Contents |  |  | Narrative: Organize sections of material in a way that will help to 
  guide the reader through your discussion. Use section headings. |  |  | Results and Conclusions (the last section of your narrative): State 
  your key results and discuss them. For example, How well did your design work? 
  Did the hardware behavior match simulated results? How well did your circuit 
  perform the analog-to-digital conversion task? Would you propose any changes 
  to your design? |  
  Hand drawn diagrams are permissible, provided that they are neatly 
  drawn.
The diagrams must reflect the finished design.
Correct spelling, grammar, punctuation, capitalization, and style are important.
