This week we will use skills gained the previous weeks like "Electronic Production", "Electronic Design" and "Embedded Programming" to connect and Input device to a board that we will design and program it to measure the input levels. I wanted to design a board that will serve my needs in my final project so the Input device I chose was IR phototransistor but unfortunately I did not find it in our lab inventory at the moment we are doing this assignment, so I decided to choose the closer match to it - the Visible Light Photo-transistor. My circuit will simply show the illumination levels and turn a LED on when the surrounding ambient is dark. The work I performed can be summarized in steps as follows:
- Circuit Design.
- Circuit Production.
- Circuit Programming.
