Week #7: (10/17) Finish WAM, BS2 Signals, Begin StampWorks & Prof. Dev. Board

Post by rjagodowski »

We'll spend the first part of the class discussing the Basic Stamp Syntax and Reference Manual. The Basic Stamp Syntax and Reference Manual can be downloaded here.

We will then discuss the signals to be observed in the coming week's lab experiment Week #7: BS2 IO Signals, with review discussions on Duty Cycle, PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) with HIGH/LOW/PULSOUT/PAUSE, exponential waveform signals PULSIN/RCTIME and Sine wave Modelling FREQOUT. Some sample screenshots are posted below.

Lastly, I'll give a brief introduction to the StampWorks kit, the Professional Development Board and the experiments which need to be completed using that equipment. You can download the support information for StampWorks and the Professional Development Board here.

Here's a bit on PWM from Sparkfun.


Here are some sample screenshots taken from students in previous classes:
