Inventing with ProgrammableMicrochipsHave you noticed how many devices are programmable in our modernsociety? Have you ever wondered what acts as the brains of these devices?If you are curious about microchips and want to learn how to program themthen this is the course for you.

A microchip is a circuit board mounted device without the infrastructure toswitch large loads or handle signals over 5Vdc. What that means is you getto design your own control architecture from scratch and learn somefundamental lessons in the process. The delivery of this course is 100%hands on - you build, program and debug your own circuits. As well asfollowing a textbook, you will learn where all of the great on-line resourcesare to assist you with developing projects.

Some of the devices we will learn to interface are stepper motors, servos,LEDs, photo resistors and other analog devices. This course is intended tobe an eye opener to those without any programming or electronicsknowledge, and fun and challenging to individuals who already know a fewprogramming languages.

Introduction toThermography

Prerequisite – Journeyperson Electrician Many aspects of our industry are governed by temperature. From theterminations of conductors to the conductivity of disconnect switches, 'heat'is a big factor in the reliability and failures of our electrical equipment andinstallations. But what if you could see ‘heat’? Thermal Infrared Imagingallows you to ‘see’ the anomalies before they become a dangerous risk of fireand personal injury.

This course introduces the student to hands-on Infrared Thermography(Thermal-Photography) and through the use of in-class thermal imagingcameras, they get to see how heat is measured and recorded without evermaking contact with a component. Unique thermal applications are discussedand demonstrated to showcase the incredible capabilities of this fascinatingvisual instrument.

As an Electrical Thermographer, there are a number of certification levels thatcan open up our industry to thermographic competency. From finding ‘HotSpots’, to quantifying predictive and preventative maintenance procedures,thermal scanning reveals what abnormalities the naked eye cannot see.
