Objectives
KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING
ANALYSIS OF THE GENERAL REQUIREMENTS OF MODERN INDUSTRY. GENERAL ARCHITECTURE OF AN AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT SYSTEM. ANALOG AND DIGITAL SENSORS AND TRANSDUCERS. SENSOR CONDITIONING SYSTEMS. DISTRIBUTED MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS. OUTLINE OF THE MAIN ARCHITECTURES FOR DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSING FOR MEASUREMENT AND AUTOMATION APPLICATIONS. MODE OF CONNECTION OF DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEMS TO SIGNALS FROM THE FIELD. MAIN FEATURES OF THE MICROCONTROLLERS OF THE ARM FAMILY. PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUES FOR MICROCONTROLLERS BASED ON INTERRUPT. MAIN PERIPHERALS OF MICROCONTROLLERS FOR APPLICATIONS OF AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS SOFTWARE ENVIRONMENT FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF FIRMWARE IN MICROCONTROLLERS. DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF AN AUTOMATIC MICROCONTROLLER MEASURING SYSTEM FOR INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION AND LABORATORY APPLICATIONS.


APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING – ENGINEERING ANALYSIS
ABILITY TO ANALYZE THE ARCHITECTURE OF AN AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT SYSTEM, ABILITY TO IDENTIFY THE MAIN CHARACTERISTICS OF THE ELEMENTS (SENSORS, MICROCONTROLLERS, INTERFACES) CONSTITUTING THE SYSTEM. ABILITY TO ACQUIRE AND ANALYZE SIGNALS WITH ANALOG-DIGITAL CONVERTERS, ABILITY TO ANALYZE A SOFTWARE CODE FOR PROGRAMMING MICROCONTROLLERS.


APPLYING KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING – ENGINEERING DESIGN
DESIGN CAPABILITY OF AUTOMATED MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS BASED ON MICROCONTROLLER ARCHITECTURES, FIRMWARE DESIGN CAPABILITIES FOR MICROCONTROLLERS USED IN AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS APPLICATIONS.


MAKING JUDGMENTS - ENGINEERING PRACTICE:
KNOWING HOW TO IDENTIFY THE MICROCONTROLLER AND ITS PERIPHERALS THAT ARE MORE APPROPRIATE WITH RESPECT TO THE APPLICATION NEEDS, KNOW HOW TO REALIZE THE FIRMWARE FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT SYSTEM.


COMMUNICATION SKILLS – TRANSVERSAL SKILLS
UNDERSTANDING OF THE TERMINOLOGY IN THE FIELD OF MEASUREMENTS AND IN PARTICULAR OF AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS, MICROCONTROLLERS, INTERFACE SYSTEMS AND ELECTRONIC INSTRUMENTATION. KNOWING HOW TO EXPOSE TOPICS RELATED TO MEASUREMENT SYSTEMS ORALLY, KNOW HOW TO WORK IN A GROUP AND DESCRIBE THE REALIZED AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT SYSTEM.


LEARNING SKILLS – TRANSVERSAL SKILLS
KNOWING HOW TO APPLY THE ACQUIRED KNOWLEDGE TO CONTEXTS DIFFERENT FROM THOSE PRESENTED DURING THE COURSE, AND DEEPEN THE TOPICS COVERED, ADAPTING THEM TO SPECIFIC APPLICATION REQUIREMENTS.
Prerequisites
COMPULSORY PRE-REQUISITES ARE NOT REQUIRED BUT THE STUDENT SHOULD HAVE PREVIOUSLY ACQUIRED THE BASICS OF ELECTRONIC MEASUREMENTS, INFORMATICS, ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS.

Teaching Methods
THE COURSE INCLUDES FRONTAL LESSONS (29 HOURS), EXERCISES (IN THE LABORATORY) ON MICROCONTROLLER PROGRAMMING FOR MEASUREMENT APPLICATIONS (19 HOURS), DEVELOPMENT OF A GROUP PROJECT (REALIZATION OF AN AUTOMATIC MEASUREMENT SYSTEM BASED ON MICROCONTROLLER) IN THE LABORATORY ON AN ARGUMENT ASSIGNED BY THE TEACHER (15 HOURS). DURING THE COURSE OF THE PROJECT EACH GROUP WILL BE FORMED BY A MAXIMUM OF 4 STUDENTS.
Verification of learning
THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE IS CERTIFIED BY PASSING AN EXAM WITH EVALUATION IN THIRTIES (THE MINIMUM LEVEL OF PASSING CORRESPONDS TO "18" AND THE MAXIMUM TO "30 CUM LAUDE"), WHICH PROVIDES A SINGLE ORAL TEST, OF THE DURATION INDICATIVE AVERAGE OF 40 MINUTES, AND AIMED AT:
1) VERIFY THE LEARNING OF THE TOPICS COVERED IN THE THEORY HOURS;
2) VERIFY THE GOOD OUTCOME OF THE GROUP PROJECT REALIZED ON THE TOPIC ASSIGNED BY THE TEACHER;
3) VERIFY THE EXPOSURE CAPACITY OF THE TOPICS ADDRESSED;
4) VERIFY THE AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT IN PROPOSING THE MOST APPROPRIATE APPROACH TO ARGUMENT WHAT IS REQUIRED.
EVALUATION CRITERIA FOR THE MINIMUM THRESHOLD: THE STUDENT MUST DEMONSTRATE THAT THEY UNDERSTAND THE BASIC CONCEPTS OF THE MEASUREMENT TOPICS AND THE BASIS OF PROGRAMMING THE MEASURING INSTRUMENT BY USING THE DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT USED DURING THE ASSIGNMENT OF THE LABORATORY THE COURSE.
EVALUATION CRITERIA FOR EXCELLENCE: THE STUDENT WILL REACH THE LEVEL OF EXCELLENCE IF THEY SHOW THE ABILITY TO MAKE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN THE THEORETICAL TOPICS COVERED AND SHOWS FULL MASTERY OF THE ACTIVITIES CARRIED OUT DURING THE PROJECT.
