1. Module 3 – Arduino Advanced – 16 ~ 19 Hours

 Pre-requisite for this module:

• Understanding of Basic Electronics, Usage of electronic components in circuits, usage of bread boards and multimeter
• Using Arduino open source hardware, interface of various inputs/output devices including display, keypad and electromechanical devices
• It is strongly recommended that students bring their own laptop. You’ll preserve your work and you’ll have all the development environment set up for you to work even after your course(s)

Working Kit Contents:

• Arduino Uno Board, DC Motor, H-Bridge (L293) Motor Driver Board, 8x8 Dot Matrix Display, 16x2 Character LCD display, 4x4 Matrix Keypad, PIR Sensor, SR04 Ultrasound Distance Sensor, LM35 Temperature Sensor, LDR (Light Dependant Resistor), Breadboard, LEDs, RGB LEDs, Resistors, Potentiometer, 7-Segment Display, Tactile switch, Rocker switch, Piezo Electric Buzzer, Connecting Wires, Batteries 

What you’ll learn:

Interfacing electromechanical devices like DC/Servo motors, changing direction using H-Bridge like L293 boards

• Understanding interface of various display devices like multiple 7-segment displays, writing your own drivers for LCD displays and detecting keypress from a capacitive touch keypad
• Interface with various sensors and how to use them in a practical application
• You’ll get to work with technologies that make embedded systems work
