Arduino Training was conducted from 7th Chaitra to 22nd Chaitra 2078 at Khwopa Engineering College. Department of Electronics and Communication organized a weeklong training for each of the 2nd and 4th semester students. A total of 47 students (23 students from 2nd semester and 24 students from 4th semester) were involved in 15 hour long training. Er. Krishna Prasad Chaulagain and Er. Raunak Joshi facilitated the training.
During the course of the training, students were introduced to development boards and Arduino through hands-on learning approach. Students acquired knowledge on basic electronic components, bread boarding, Arduino programming, interfacing different sensors in Arduino, datasheets, motor control, digital and analog data in Arduino, communication protocols, 555 timer projects, basic soldering techniques, and free-form electronics. Students were able to create basic power supply in breadboard and also in matrix/ proto board.
Such training would help students in developing a better understanding on the concepts associated with the subject matter. Further, it would help them building basic knowledge in robotics and automation and in their future endeavors.
