Course which have preconditioned courses Applied electronics
Acquiring professional knowledge in the field of applied electronics in industry, modern devices, robots, connection with the computer and optoelectronic components etc. The main objective is to prepare students for solving contemporary and complex engineering problems. - ability to design and produce systems with PIC, DSP, and PLC controllers etc. - ability to design and produce measuring electronic devices - ability to design and produce devices for solving practical problems of consumer electronics - ability to design and produce robotic systems - ability to design and produce systems with optoelectronic components and sensors - ability to design and practically handle systems connecting computers and electronic systems Design and production of systems based on hardware and software.
Hardware includes: PC computers, computer networks, microcontrollers, DPSs, PICs, A/D and D/A converters, operational amplifiers, transistors, diodes, digital circuits, memories, sensors, video cameras, power sources, passive components, speakers, antennas, mobile phones, LC displays, optoelectronic components, thyristors and power transistors, modems etc.
Software includes: C++, Delfi, MatLab, Visual Basic, Fat Slut, Visual C++, Software for PIC emulation, Software for DSP, Processing signals (FFT etc.)
Students will get specific industrial problems in collaboration with industry. Part of the course is carried out through independent research in the field of applied electronics in industry and life. Research paper includes active monitoring of the primary technical and scientific resources, organization and experiment execution and statistical data processing, design of industrial devices, writing the paper in the field which belongs to the Master thesis topic.
Preparation of project documentation. Public project presentation and Internet project presentation.
Work is organized in teams where industry professionals will also participate. Part of the course which represents a logical whole can be passed through 2 projects (worth up to 60 points). Final examination is in the form of the exam project presentation (worth up to 30 points). Students who have a good placement in contests get extra points.
Course grade is formed based on the auditory and laboratory practice attendance, student projects, and final examination. Student capabilities in solving practical problems and paper presentations are assessed in particular.
