Description
This course is a study in microcontroller architecture, arithmetic, programming, and interfacing. Emphasis placed on laboratory experiments dealing with microcontroller circuit build, program execution and interfacing. In this project based course students will given a platform to work with from several available on the market such as Arduino, Microchip, or others. Students will put together a series of projects that they will design, build, program and test for the instructor’s approval. Prerequisites: ELEC 1011 Electronics Assembly and Soldering.
Objectives:
• Learn to design and build microcontroller circuits.
• Learn to program and test microcontroller circuits using structured text.
• Apply peripheral interfacing in software and hardware.
• Learn interrupt control.
• Learn software development tools.
• Learn C based programming language.
