Fundamentals of Electrical & Computer Engineering

EE292 Fall 2012

Arduino Project

The microcontroller project is designed to teach and test knowledge learned in EE292 with the cre- ation of "intelligent" circuits. A microcontroller is a small processor with physical inputs designed for integration with real parts. The goal of the project is to utilize discrete circuit components and the inputs to the microcontroller to compute and produce a useful output. This project should be a fun experience will give you experience that will be beneficial for Senior Design.

The microcontroller that will be used in this class is the Arduino which is small, but powerful. The Ardruino will be paired with physical devices such as the ele- ments of the class lab kit to develop intelligent circuits.
