== Checklist to Complete Before the First Day of Class ==

Attendance at the first day of class is mandatory. If you will be unable to make the first day of class, please give up your seat in ME 333 now (unregister or email Prof. Lynch to be taken off the waitlist) so that another student can have it. By the first day of class, you should:

* Be able to solve circuit problems similar to those on the practice problem set at the bottom of [[ME_333_Circuits_Review_Material|this page]]. Be prepared for a short quiz on this material on the second day of class.
* Have a laptop with at least 2 USB ports running a Windows operating system (see FAQ below on using running Windows on a Mac). One port will be used to program and communicate with your PIC microcontroller, and the other will be used for your portable oscilloscope.
* Download and install software described on [[NU32v2: Software to Install| this page]].
* Make sure your laptop has Matlab installed.

On the first day of class, January 4, you should come to class with your laptop, ready to use all of the software mentioned above, since we will use it on the first day of class. If you are unable to meet the checklist (and downloading and installing the software may take you an hour, so plan ahead), you will be asked to drop the course to make space for someone else.

== Student Contract ==

By signing up for this course, you agree to complete the checklist above before the course starts. You understand that ME 333 is being revised extensively, and there will be some uncertainties as the curriculum and equipment are ironed out. You understand that learning from classmates is encouraged, up to the stage of conceptualizing solutions. You understand that copying assignment solutions and program code plagiarism is not tolerated. You will report instances of code plagiarism you are aware of. Code plagiarism includes, but is not limited to:

* Allowing another student to copy your code.
* Copying another student's code, in whole or in part.
* Transforming copied sections of code to try to disguise their origin.
* Borrowing code from others not in the course, e.g., code found on the internet, without attribution. Borrowing code found on the internet is acceptable if the source is clearly indicated in your code comments.

On our part (faculty and TA), we commit to do our best to provide you a curriculum and set of experimental materials to get you up to speed on sophisticated mechatronics integration as quickly and efficiently as possible, while giving you a foundation in concepts needed to go further in future projects and courses.

== Prerequisite ==

ME 233 Electronics Design or similar (EECS 221, 225) is required. You will be expected to analyze circuits with resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, transistors, and op-amps on the first day of class. There will be a quiz on this material on the second day of class, but you are on your own to prepare for it. To see if you have the right background, or if you will need to freshen up before the quarter starts, do the practice problem set and the 2011 quiz on [[ME_333_Circuits_Review_Material|this page]].

== Important Information: Changes to ME 333 for Winter 2011 ==

* ME 333 will be taught differently in 2011 than it has been in recent years. In particular, there will be no lab groups and no large final projects. Each student will be issued a PIC microcontroller and electronics, sensors, and actuators needed to complete the programming and interface assignments on his/her own. Every student will do a significant amount of programming. An example of an assignment is to write PIC software to control a motor based on encoder feedback.
* You need a laptop for this course. You will need to bring it to class. (There are some similarities to ME 233.)
* ME 333 assumes some familiarity with circuits, e.g., transistors and op amps. ME 233 is good preparation. EECS 221 or 225 should suffice, too.

If you are signed up for ME 333 and this does not sound like a course you want to take (e.g., you don't want to do a lot of programming), please unregister. If you would like to be on the waiting list, send me an email, kmlynch at northwestern.edu. If you are already on the waiting list (you received a mail from me) but would like to be off the waiting list, or if you don't have experience with circuits, please let me know, and I will take you off the waiting list.

Student Contract

By signing up for this course, you agree to complete the checklist above before the course starts. You understand that ME 333 is being revised extensively, and there will be some uncertainties as the curriculum and equipment are ironed out. You understand that learning from classmates is encouraged, up to the stage of conceptualizing solutions. You understand that copying assignment solutions and program code plagiarism is not tolerated. You will report instances of code plagiarism you are aware of. Code plagiarism includes, but is not limited to:

  • Allowing another student to copy your code.
  • Copying another student's code, in whole or in part.
  • Transforming copied sections of code to try to disguise their origin.
  • Borrowing code from others not in the course, e.g., code found on the internet, without attribution. Borrowing code found on the internet is acceptable if the source is clearly indicated in your code comments.

On our part (faculty and TA), we commit to do our best to provide you a curriculum and set of experimental materials to get you up to speed on sophisticated mechatronics integration as quickly and efficiently as possible, while giving you a foundation in concepts needed to go further in future projects and courses.

Prerequisite

ME 233 Electronics Design or similar (EECS 221, 225) is required. You will be expected to analyze circuits with resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, transistors, and op-amps on the first day of class. There will be a quiz on this material on the second day of class, but you are on your own to prepare for it. To see if you have the right background, or if you will need to freshen up before the quarter starts, do the practice problem set and the 2011 quiz on this page.

Reading

Required:

  • Essential C: A brief introduction to the C programming language
  • PIC32 Data Sheet (254 pages, 5 MB pdf)
  • PIC32 Family Reference Manual, by chapter. Lots of useful and detailed information on the PIC32 architecture and how the peripherals work, including detailed description of their SFRs. Only certain parts of certain chapters will be assigned.
  • PIC32MX Peripheral Library (included as a .chm file under "Program Files\Microchip\MPLAB C32\doc" with your C32 compiler installation)

Useful, but not required:

Grading

Grades will be approximately 40% quizzes and 60% assignments. We will have short quizzes once a week at the beginning of class covering material on the previous assignment. Bring a sheet of paper you can turn in with your quiz answers. We will have a final demo in lieu of a final exam.

Approximate Syllabus

ME 333 focuses on three topics: (1) general C programming; (2) Microchip PIC microcontroller architecture and C programming specific to the PIC (e.g., using the PIC's peripherals, such as analog inputs, digital I/O, counters/timers, comm ports, etc.); and (3) interfacing the PIC to sensors and actuators, some theory of sensor and actuator operation, and interface circuitry and signal processing.

You will bring your laptop to each class. As the quarter progresses, we will be handing out other equipment that you will need to bring to class, such as the NU32v2 development board that breaks out the PIC32MX795F512L microcontroller.

Topics we will cover include:

  • introduction to C programming (here's a simple tutorial C program)
  • quiz on circuits
  • introduction to the PIC32 hardware, and programming the PIC32 in C
  • digital I/O
  • counters/timers and interrupts
  • analog input
  • sensor smorgasbord
  • digital signal processing: filters and FFTs
  • analog output and pulse-width modulation
  • brushed permanent magnet DC motors: theory and control
  • stepper motors and RC servo motors
  • communication by SPI, I2C, and RS-232

By class (note: DS = Data Sheet, RM = Reference Manual):

Class 1

Quiz: None.
Topic: Course overview. Circuits review.
Reading: Practice problem set and quiz on this page, as well as background reading as needed.

Class 2

Quiz: None.
Topic: Introduction to C.
Reading: Sample program, Essential C (page numbers referenced in program comments).

Class 3

Topic: Introduction to C (cont).
Reading:
Assignment out:

Final Demo: Monday 3/12, 3-5 PM, for 12:30-1:50 section; Wednesday 3/14, 9-11 AM, for 11:00-12:20 section

FAQ

Q: Do I need to know the C language to take this course?

A: No. But if you already know C, there is still plenty else in this course for you. If you already know C, know how to use microcontrollers for real-time control, and have a good understanding how common sensors and actuators work and how to interface to them, this course may not be for you. Consider taking ME 433 Advanced Mechatronics in the spring quarter.


Q: Is there an independent project?

A: There is no large independent project. There will be an individual two-week project at the end of the course, but there will be no machining. For a significant project, do a quarter-long project in ME 433 Advanced Mechatronics, offered in the spring quarter. ME 333 is good preparation for ME 433.


Q: What kind of laptop do I need?

A: You need a laptop with at least 2 USB ports. Any operating system is fine.
