Registration, Pricing and Class Availability

44 hours - 4 Credits

In our continued effort to provide education in the automation of aerospace manufacturing, we are excited to deliver this new course on the uses, assembly and programming of modern microcontrollers. The arena of automation and mechatronics is growing dramatically and Introduction to Arduino and Microcontrollers is one of several courses in a series focused on direct application of these technologies to industry.

These new Microcontroller courses are designed to tie in with our Mechanical Automation Systems Engineering series in order to teach students how to design, build and program their own devices to help automate any process. While the Mechanical Automation courses focus on more of the physical materials needed to move and manufacture product, with some installation of electronic control systems, Introduction to Arduino and Microcontrollers works strongly on the electronic side creating custom hardware and software to manipulate these physical systems.

While this is an introductory electronic engineering course, there are no prerequisites but a dedication to class and ability to do outside research is neccesary. You will learn about the various microcontrollers and their applications through lessons, applied projects and Internet study but in class we focus on the Arduino/Atmel AVR hardware platform. We feel this teaches students efficiency in design and creates the most cost effective systems available. As with all our classes, we make sure students are always aware of where to buy, cost, and availability of all components so they can leave class fully prepared to continue their building on their own.

Class Topics:

Microcontroller types and their uses
Various electronic components
Soldering
Basic circuit design
Simulation and design software (EagleCAD, Circuit Wizard)
Interfacing with a microcontroller
Simple C coding basics
Uploading code into the microcontroller
Learning about other add-on devices
Combining components and add-on devices to create micromachines

Various controller links:

Arduino site
Arduino Projects
Adafruit
Rasberry Pi
BeagleBone
Parallax - BASIC Stamp
Atmel AVR Site

The Applied Science and Manufacturing division is continually connected with local aerospace at the application level and for many years we've taught technology, composites and design directly with those in the field. While we do support entry level students, our classes are directed toward aerospace engineers and technicians interested in the actual use of the technology in day to day practice.
