Applications of fundamentals of engineering mechanics in analysis and synthesis of machine components and systems to the manufacture of products from metals, polymers, ceramics, and composites. Use and management of computers in engineering for drafting, design management, documentation, and manufacturing. Covers drafting methods and standards, design data management, CNC operations, implementation, kinematics, control, operation, sensing, and design as applied to various types of industrial models. A related project is required.
-
3.00 Credits
Applications of microprocessors and microcontrollers and digital electronics to the design and utilization of embedded control systems in smart systems and products. Topics include Boolean logic and algebra, system hardware and software development, and interfacing for mechanical applications.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers the analysis, design, simulation, and construction of digital logic circuits and systems. The material in this course provides the necessary tools to design digital hardware circuits such as digital clocks and locks, as well as computer hardware. The course begins with the study of binary and hexadecimal number systems, Boolean algebra, and their application to the design of combinational logic circuits. The first half of the course focuses on designs using small-scale integration (SSI) logic circuits, medium-scale integration (MSI) circuits, and programmable logic devices (PLDs) to implement combinational logic functions. The second half of the course emphasizes sequential logic circuits like counters and sequence recognizers, and also covers memory systems. Laboratory work in this half of the course focuses on using very high speed integrated circuit hardware description language (VHDL) to simulate digital systems and to program those systems into PLDs. As a final project, student teams design, build, and test a digital logic system such as a programmable alarm clock, digital lock, or burglar alarm.
