University of Michigan-Dearborn

Subject:

Electrical&Computer Engin

Description:

Techniques for interfacing actuators and sensors to computers with emphasis on the use of a variety of microprocessors and a broad range of sensors. Topics include introduction to small microprocessors such as PIC16, PIC18, small systems such as oopic, basicx as well as using a PC as a controller. Control of motors and other actuators using opto-isolators and discrete electronics, use of H-bridges. Interfacing sensors that provide different encoding data, such as analog signals, digital communication using I2C protocol, handshake I/O, pulse width encoding.
