Course Outline:
This topical program provides trainees with the related courseware that prepares them for advanced skills assignments using Microprocessor Technology. The training provides a conceptual understanding of how microprocessors function within programmable controllers, industrial control, and electronic instrumentation equipment. Operations, maintenance, and troubleshooting techniques are emphasized. The Microprocessor Technology program is ideal for electricians, maintenance personnel, technicians, engineers, managers, and others who work with microprocessors and programmable/industrial controllers. In addition, trainees will gain practical experience through a series of hands-on experiments they will perform using the XK-300 Microprocessor Trainer. Trainees entering this program should have knowledge of practical mathematics, electricity, and electronics. Upon completion of this program, students will be able to:
  • Convert back and forth among decimal, binary, octal, and hexadecimal number systems.
  • Write, enter, and run basic microprocessor programs.
  • Use a dual-trace oscilloscope, DMM, logic probe, and logic pulser to troubleshoot hardware faults.
  • Measure AC and DC system voltages.
  • Use breakpoints and single-step operation to debug programs.
  • Describe the functions of microprocessor chips and support architecture.
  • Troubleshoot software and hardware faults using diagnostics.
  • Understand the operations of motor controllers, numerical control systems, programmable controllers, and industrial robots.
  • Discuss the principles of electronic servomechanism equipment and systems.
  • Identify applications for numerical control systems: milling, drilling, and boring.
