Week 9 - Output Devices
Assignment
- Group Assignment:
- Measure the power consumption of an output device.
- Document your work on the group work page and reflect on your individual page what you learned.
- Individual assignment:
- Add an output device to a microcontroller board you've designed and program it to do something.
Evaluation Standards
- Linked to the group assignment page.
- Documented how you determined power consumption of an output device with your group.
- Documented what you learned from interfacing output device(s) to microcontroller and controlling the device(s).
- Documented your design and fabrication process or linked to the board you made in a previous assignment.
- Explained the programming process/es you used.
- Explained any problems you encountered and how you fixed them.
- Included original design files and source code.
- Included a ‘hero shot’ of your board.
Output Preview
Group assignment:
We did the group assignment by controlling Dc motor , We used a relay and a 9v power supply to control the motor. we measure the volt and current to calculate the power
Measure the current
Measure the volt power consumption calculation
- I learned from interfacing output device how to measure the power consumption of an output device.
Individual assignment:
- Design and fabrication process for microcontroller board Check week8
- Programming processes I uploaded a code for swing servo motor to control the angle of the servo motor, The Servo Library is a great library for controlling servo motors. In this article, you will find two easy examples that can be used by any Arduino board
- Wiring and outcome:Servo motors have three wires: power, ground, and signal. The power wire is typically red, and should be connected to the 5V pin on the Arduino board. The ground wire is typically black or brown and should be connected to a ground pin on the board. The signal pin is typically yellow or orange and should be connected to PWM pin on the board.
