About The Workshop:
This workshop on Analog system, PCB design and Embedded C programming was an exhaustive hands on training program on design of analog systems, PCB design and Embedded C programming from industry development perspective. On the first day of workshop, hands on experience using TINA TI for Analog system design was given and afternoon session was dedicated to PCB design using KiCad to build the schematic of analog system. The layout and layout verification of analog system was carried out. The embedded C using CCS was also used in second day. Simple interface experiments using MSP430 microcontroller were developed.
