Unit Code: EEC447

Unit Name: Microcontroller Applications

Description: On successful completion of this course, the student should be able to: 1. Explain and perform order of magnitude calculations and ?back of envelope? calculations from first principles when tackling open-ended design tasks. 2. Select an appropriate motor or actuation system and set of sensors for a given application, providing reasons for the choices made. Develop a specification for an integrated electromechanical system that includes one or more actuators, sensors and computer control. 3. Describe and demonstrate the overall system performance using both analytic methods and computer simulation. 4. Demonstrate and notate algorithms for control and data processing in mechatronic systems. 5. Write evaluation, test and implement mechatronics project for the solution of problems relevant to Biomedical engineering.

Learning Target Outcomes: On successful completion of this course, the student should be able to: 1. Explain interpretation terminologies relevant to the microcontroller. 2. Apply an efficient and systematic approach to problem definition, analysis and testing of microcontroller applications. 3. Describe and demonstrate a low-level language to program effective electronic/electrical controller application and high-level language, which encourages and reinforces the use of a systematic programming methodology. 4. Relate and apply the software development for microcontroller-based application for industrial, commercial and home electronic/electrical applications relevant to Biomedical Engineering. 5. Write evaluation, test and implement microcontroller project to solve problems relevant to Biomedical engineering.
