From the intricacies of electricity and circuits to the marvels of programmable microcontrollers, students will delve into the heart of electronic devices that power our modern world. The course begins with the fundamentals of electricity and electrical circuits before moving on to the behavior of various electronic components. Students explore the concept of programmable circuits, where a circuit can be designed and then programmed via computer to make measurements or perform specific tasks. Using the Arduino framework, students learn to use basic computer programming to measure and interact with the physical world around us using electronics. Hands-on labs help students transform theoretical concepts into practical skills as students build their own devices.
