PICMICROCONTROLLER

18 19 OCTOBER 2012This two-day course aims to equip participants with the fundamental understanding and skills needed to construct and program a PIC microcontroller. During the hands-on session, participants are given opportunities to build and program their own PIC circuits from scratch, sharpen their programming skill in Assembly and C languages while unleashing their creativity in developing variety of programs. Elementary to intermediate projects such as motor control are introduced. Participants are also guided in datasheet interpretation, circuit troubleshooting and components selection.

This course is one of the popular short courses in UTM conducted by an experienced roboticist, Dr Yeong Che Fai. The course has previously been organised for lecturers, researchers and undergraduates from various universities, polytechnics and colleges nationwide, and has evolved over the years to provide an effective platform for participants to learn about microcontroller via carefully designed hands-on tasks.

Dr Yeong Che Fai is currently a senior lecturer at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, UTM. He graduated with PhD in Bioengineering from Imperial College London, in 2010. He has been teaching the microcontroller subject since 2003, and has experience with different types of microcontroller including ATMEL, Microchip PIC, Motorola, Philips and Arduino.

His name is well-associated with robotics in Malaysia as he has participated and won many robotics competitions nationally and internationally. He has been team instructor and team advisor for UTM Robocon team for 7 years. Dr Yeong has led the UTM/ Malaysian Robocon team to win national champion titles and represented Malaysia in the Asia-Pacific Robot contest in Thailand (2003), Korea (2004), China (2005), Malaysia (2006) and recently

Thailand (2011). He has also won champion titles in national Robot Climb (2002 & 2004), Robot Grab (2004) and Robot Partner (2004) competitions. Besides his achievements in robotics, Dr Yeong also led several teams to Philips Young Inventors Challenge competition and won the competition two years in a row in 2004 and 2005. Both winning inventions were gadgets that utilized microcontroller.

To learn about the microcontroller using a hands-on approach To construct basic circuit and program the microcontroller in Assembly and C language To provide participants with the knowledge to construct their own embedded system in the future.

Have good understanding of microcontroller, specifically of PIC microcontrollers Confidently construct and troubleshoot a PIC circuit for various applications, including for DC, stepper and servo motor control. Program a PIC microcontroller using both Assembly and C language. Interpret and use a datasheet effectively. Make wise selection of components for optimum performance yet cost effective PIC projects.
