Microcontroller System Development (91030)

Students answer multiple-choice and real-number questions, and perform troubleshooting exercises to demonstrate competency as they master course objectives. With up to 12 circuit faults to troubleshoot and 20 circuit modifications to observe and measure, FACET-trained students master skills necessary for employment and advanced studies.

The Circuit Board is mounted in a sturdy polystyrene tray for easy handling and connection to the Base Unit. The active components are in sockets for easy replacement. To permit the examination and testing of several different circuits, the student uses two-post connectors to quickly configure partially wired circuits within each circuit block. The circuits contain test points for the student to measure the electrical parameters.

The FACET Base Unit provides regulated ±15-volt DC power and protection to the circuit components. The Circuit Board is a multi-layer, G-10, glass-epoxy PC board with 2-ounce copper and has a black matte coating to enhance readability of circuit diagrams that appear in white.
