Course Objective

In this course, students choose a microcontroller in order to solve a problem, set up the solution algorithm for this microcontroller and be able to draw the flow diagram. Compile the algorithm with microcontroller commands, load the compiled program to the microcontroller after fixing the errors if exist.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1	able to select the appropriate microcontroller.
2	able to make an algorithm for solving the problem and to create flow charts.
3	able to write basic input-output programs with microcontroller.
4	able to integrate sensors, analog and digital circuits to microcontroller.
5	able to compile, fix the errors and upload the program the microcontroller.
6	able to communicate the microcontroller with other microcontrollers or PCs.
