ECE Basics

Circuit Basics

For now, refer to the following pdf file.

  1. For voltage regulation, you'll have to find the LM38T05 spec sheet.
  2. The LEDs have a current limit, so what component should you use to limit the current?
  3. The optoisolator spec sheets are here, here, and here. They should all work the same. I believe that the PS2501 (or maybe the MCT06) has a nice example circuit so you can see how the pull-down resistors should go (to effectively create pull-down voltage dividers).

Arduino Basics

There are also a set of experiments for working with the Arduino.

  • Experiment set no. 1
    1. LED blinking via PWM.
    2. Analog input using a potentiometer as a voltage divider.
    3. Potentiometer plus optisolation and LED blinking.
    4. IMU reading.
    5. Binary switches and digital input
  • Experiment set no. 2
    1. PWM output and servo motors.
    2. External trigger.
    3. Motor encoder and counting.
