| Course abstract | |
| The aim of the study course is to introduce theoretical information about the construction of microprocessor control systems, peripheral devices, programming, connecting and using various types of sensors and actuators in digital automatic control. In laboratory works, students study the components of digital control equipment: logical elements and logical circuits of various degrees of complexity. In practical works, students learn microcontroller programming by implementing programs for reading digital and analog sensors, controlling actuators and organizing the user interfaces. | |
| Learning outcomes and their assessment | |
| Acquired knowledge about the construction of microprocessor control systems, methods, materials and tools in the development of digital automatic control equipment (development of practical works); Acquired skills to develop microcontroller programs for PIC16 architecture, independently learn programming of devices of other manufacturers and architectures (development and defense of laboratory works). | |
