To begin, enter a title for your PIC system design/project. |
|
Click here to chose a Sensor /Input Trigger Switch then drag it down to the Block Diagram. Subsystem information will then open in this panel (you will need to close it before carrying on with these instructions). |
|
Select the Output Device(s) you want from the selection shown. |
|
You
can either keep the transistor Controller that has appeared as a basic
system, or click "Yes", in the panel top right and go on
to select a PIC device for greater control. |
|
To
see the electronic components added to the Circuit Board below, click
on "see PCB". You will notice the standard FastTrack PCB has
been replaced by the FastTrack PIC PCB.
|
|
The Circuit Diagram shows the component codes/values and PIC devices you can use. To return to the Block Diagram: either scroll up, or click on "See Block Diagram" below the PCB. |
|
By clicking the Block Diagram icons again, you will see their electronic component values, codes and costs. |
|
Use
this information and that shown in the "System Circuit Diagram"
to
fill in the "Components Required" form .
|
|
Use the "Component Costs" section to write up the total cost of your electronic system. |
|
To
assist practical work, print your system design by using the top right
Print Button. You
can model and build your system with FastTrack hardware. Select "New Design" to design a different system. Congratulations,
(FastTrack PIC PCB's are provided drilled, tinned and with a legend by QuickLink Systems).
