The ‘Experiment’ Goals are:The ‘Experiment’ Goals are:

To explain the inner workings of a computer at a fundamental programming level (assembler) with hardware interfacing.

To teach you how to work independently and find yourself all you need for your project. Hence, no book. Everything you need is on the Web

To teach you to design, construct and document a commercial product

To give you insight into a use of microprocessors which has a wide range of applications in automobiles, appliances and other industrial applications

To give you useful career skills


3

At the end you will:At the end you will:

Be able to design basic electronic circuits and interfaces

Be completely familiar with the detailed user information of the ATMEL ATmega103/128 microprocessor

Be able to program in AVR assembler including– the basic commands– writing a structured program, with top-down modular

design using subroutines– using tools to compile and download your programs to

the ATmega103/128 chip


4

At the end you will have:At the end you will have:

Used a microprocessor to create an application and construct something useful :– Some electronics will be needed– Interfacing the microprocessor with various devices– Had novel ideas and been motivated

Written a good and clear report on the product you have made


5

Course Duration and MilestonesCourse Duration and Milestones

4 weeks of lectures/training followed by 2 weeks for ‘experiment’ completion and writing your report.

This 2.0 unit experiment ends on 21st November.

This term it is possible to extend the work to a full-term ‘project’ worth 3 units.FOR MORE INFO...

AssessmentAssessment

For a 6 week ‘double-experiment’ we assess you on your report, ‘product’, and interview.

For a full-term ‘project’ after 5-6 weeks the assessment includes:-– a short proposal report after 4 weeks– a formal project report at the end– an interview.
