The CEC will get you up to speed quickly on a host of technologies you've been meaning to study via a series of 45-minute online lessons taught by our faculty of expert tutors.
This class will focus on some example designs, suggested by students that illustrate key concepts important to MCU-based IoT Designs. Links to appropriate online resources, kits, and documentation will be included to help jump-start new designs.
In this final lecture the layout phase of the FPGA process will be developed. This will get us to the point where we can bring it all together. The steps required and the loading process will be covered.
In our last class, we will look at local clients for code version control and collaboration, including some other tools available such as Atlassian’s Bitbucket.
In this final session, participants will learn how to build a Desktop Automation Trainer. The Arduino will be configured as a programmable input simulator to stimulate the PLC Ladder Logic code to operate a dc motor.
IoT design need not be confined to Ethernet and Bluetooth devices passing bytes of sensor data. Today's lecture will focus on the capabilities of the ON Semiconductor MatrixCam. The MatrixCam is a 1080p camera solution that enables the streaming...
The intelligent industrial controller that is at the center of robotics and automation is the PLC (Programmable Logic Controller). In this hands-on discussion, participants will learn PLC I/O and CPU Architecture basics. The hands-on activity will...
The way that firmware is developed is beginning to change at a rapid rate. Designing a scalable software architecture that ties into a hardware abstraction layer can greatly improve reusability which in turn decreases development costs and time...
The bottom line in IoT is to deliver the payload. Today, we will "deliver" without the assistance of WiFi, Ethernet or Bluetooth. While we're at it, we'll use the power of the sun as an IoT delivery vehicle, as well.
Stepper and servo motors are key electromechanical components for Motion Control products. Today, participants will explore Motion Control driver circuits by building and experimenting with basic Arduino based Stepper and Servo Motor Controllers.
Day two session will focus on driving high DC/AC current electromechanical components with low current DC driver. To illustrate this design method, participants will learn how to build a DC Motor Driver using a Power MOSFET. Power MOSFET basics...
