Apply the technique of circuit theory, digital electronics and microprocessor interfacing in
conducting the problem based learning for mechatronic applications {PO5, P4}.

REQUIREMENTS
Students are required to:
Design and develop the products using microcontroller, for instance Arduino, Raspberry PI or etc by the end
of this course. The product can be simple but should follow the theme. The product can also demonstrate
