Embedded Systems




An embedded system is some combination of computer hardware and software, er fixed in capability or programmable, that is designed for a specific function or for specific functions hin a larger system. Industrial machines, agricultural and process industry devices, automobiles, medical equipment, cameras, household appliances, airplanes, vending machines and toys as well as mobile devices are all possible locations for an embedded system.Embedded systems are computing systems, but can range from having no user interface (UI) -- for example, on devices in which the embedded system is designed to perform a single task -- to complex graphical user interfaces (GUI), such as in mobile devices. User interfaces can include buttons, LEDs, touchscreen sensing and more. Some systems use remote user interfaces as well.Here in AuUtomation Lab,we are working on various Microcontrollers manufactured by Texas Instruments,STmicroelectronics, and Atmel.


PCB Designing




A printed circuit board (PCB) mechanically supports and electrically connects electronic components using conductive tracks, pads and other features etched from copper sheets laminated onto a non-conductive substrate. Components (e.g. capacitors, resistors or active devices) e generally soldered on the PCB. Advanced PCBs may contain components embedded in the substrate.PCBs can be single sided (one copper layer), double sided (two copper layers) or multi-layer (outer and inner layers). Conductors on different layers are connected with vias. Multi-layer PCBs allow for much higher component density.Here in Automation Lab, we are designing high speed PCB layout using Altium Software.
