ENGR1050 C for Engineers
Create circuitry and configure software to discover and demonstrate the functionality of some as-yet unutilized component from your electronics kit.
Be sure to contribute useful background and operational information to this project documentation, to serve as a reference for others.
Your task is to:
Example:
To assist with consistency across all implementations, data files for use with this project are available on lab46 via the grabit tool. Be sure to obtain it and ensure your implementation properly works with the provided data.
lab46:~/src/SEMESTER/DESIG$ grabit DESIG PROJECT
You will want to go here to edit and fill in the various sections of the document:
Joystick: In order to operate the Joystick you will first need to access the Freenove Ultimate Starter Kit Tutorial. You can access this tutorial by searching in a browser “Freenove github”. After searching this access the tutorial for the “Freenove Ultimate Starter Kit”. After accessing this you will need to scroll down to chapter 12 which contains details on the analog digital converter and the Joystick. You can then follow the different steps to set up both the analog digital converter as well as the joystick. After you have finished setting them up with the one time operations you can then follow the diagrams of the tutorial to connect the converter and Joystick to your Raspberry Pi.
Buzzers: Your Raspberry Pi/Pico starter kit should have two buzzers; one active buzzer and one passive buzzer. Both buzzers make use of electromagnetic induction to produce a sound, hence the name “buzzer.” The difference is that the active buzzer has an oscillating source, meaning it will beep if Direct Current (DC) signals are used, while the passive buzzer does not. Instead, the passive buzzer can adjust its oscillation frequency to emit different pitches or notes. In other words, the active buzzer will activate when certain conditions are met and only turn off when the status quo is back to “normal,” such as with alarms systems, while the passive buzzer can be used to make songs.
To be successful in this project, the following criteria (or their equivalent) must be met:
Let's say you have completed work on the project, and are ready to submit, you would do the following:
lab46:~/src/SEMESTER/DESIG/PROJECT$ make submit
You should get some sort of confirmation indicating successful submission if all went according to plan. If not, check for typos and or locational mismatches.
I'll be evaluating the project based on the following criteria:
143:wus0:final tally of results (143/143) *:wus0:used grabit to obtain project by the Sunday prior to duedate [26/26] *:wus0:picture of connected circuit to project page with description [26/26] *:wus0:picture or video of functioning circuit run by program to discord [13/13] *:wus0:clean compile, no compiler messages [26/26] *:wus0:program conforms to project specifications, tests component [26/26] *:wus0:code tracked in lab46 semester repo [26/26]
