Circuit Debugging: ZYRON’26
Government College of Engineering Sengipatti
📌 About the Event
The Circuit Debugging event at ZYRON’26 is a high-pressure technical competition organized by Government College of Engineering Sengipatti. This event is designed to simulate industrial troubleshooting scenarios where engineers must quickly identify, diagnose, and repair faults in complex electronic and electrical circuits. It aims to evaluate a participant’s fundamental knowledge of Kirchhoff’s laws, component behavior, and the proficient use of diagnostic tools like Multimeters and Cathode Ray Oscilloscopes (CROs) under a ticking clock.

🎯 What You Will Do
- Complete a 20 minute “Screening Quiz” focused on circuit theory and component color coding.
- Identify intentional “bugs” or faulty components in a given schematic diagram on paper.
- Use a Digital Multimeter to trace voltages and currents on a physical breadboard or PCB.
- Rectify a malfunctioning circuit to achieve a specific output (e.g., a specific LED blink rate or sensor trigger).
- Explain the logic behind your fix to the technical jury to ensure it wasn’t a “lucky guess.”
📦 Resources and Support Available
- Toolkits: Digital Multimeters, breadboards, power supplies, and jumper wires provided on-site.
- Prep Guides: Basic circuit symbols and troubleshooting flowcharts provided as pre-event downloads.
