EE 574 - Programmable Controllers

3 lecture hours 0 lab hours 3 credits
This course provides the theory and hands-on experience necessary to enable students to design programmable controller system applications. This course highlights the systems approach as an aid to understanding modern industrial programmable controllers. Coverage begins with a review of controller basics and conventional approaches and proceeds through the concept of programmable logic including the use of microprocessors as controller elements. In addition, programming, input/output elements, peripherals, and standards and codes that govern interfacing aspects are covered. Development, design and understanding of analog input/output devices are also covered. The use of PCs as a device to program PLCs is developed. The material is reinforced by laboratory sessions that provide the opportunity to learn to develop several popular system applications. An individual project is required. (prereq: EE-3401, EE-2902 or CE-1910)
