EE 474 - Programmable Controllers

2 lecture hours 2 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. (prereq: EE 3401 , EE 2902  or CE 1910 )
