The <strong>Locktronics</strong> microcontroller allows<br />
students to undertake a wide range of studies<br />
in technology and modern applied science.<br />
The unit is based on a PICmicro® microcontroller<br />
and is compatible with our Flowcode 3<br />
graphical programming software.<br />
Three selector switches on the <strong>Locktronics</strong><br />
microcontroller allow students to make a<br />
choice of one of 8 programs built into the unit.<br />
Students then assemble the corresponding<br />
<strong>Locktronics</strong> circuit and carry out the appropriate<br />
experiment. The 8 projects are: Logic<br />
control with an AND circuit, Logic control with<br />
an NAND circuit, Energy/current monitor,<br />
Thermistor control with a comparator, Motor<br />
speed control, Timer, and Waveform generator.<br />
Students can progress further in the subject by<br />
using Flowcode software to design a program,<br />
simulate the program’s operation, and then<br />
download it to the microcontroller via USB. The<br />
unit has 4 input/output connections which can<br />
be programmed to be either inputs or outputs.<br />
