The purpose of this course is to design, analyze, develop and acquire advanced electrical troubleshooting skills. In this course, students will analyze and develop microprocessors, signal processing, analog and digital sensors systems, programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and human machine interface (PLC/HMI) systems as well as, the communication used between systems and more as part of the student's development in the field of electrical technology. Troubleshooting skills will also be addressed for these systems. Extensive lab development including analysis, design and troubleshooting of complete systems. A final project is required. This course will deepen the understanding of knowledge acquired in other Electrical Engineering Technology courses especially ELEC-145, ELEC-185, ELEC-200, ELEC-235, ELEC-245, ELEC-255 and ELEC-270. The course will also explore more advanced topics as part of real-world learning relevance.
