Course abstract

Course covers standards, tools, languages and documentation related to development of microprocessor control systems. Advanced knowledge about microprocessor control system programming and interfacing sensors and actuators is given. Use of digital communication networks in microprocessor control systems is theoretically discussed and practically tested. An introduction to digital signal processing is given. In practical lessons students learn software development for PIC24 platform based digital control systems. During the course students develop own digital automatic control system project.

Learning outcomes and their assessment

• Knowledge – about architecture, design, development and life cycle of microprocessor control systems;
• skills – to design complicated closed loop digital automatic control systems with data communication feature with user and remote systems;
• competence – to choose the best control system architecture for control the given technological process.
