This paper describes complete design of timer for RC models. Described timer has three PWM outputs. With these outputs it is possible to connect two independent servo-motors and engine controller. 1 signal. The whole is controlled by 8-bit microprocessor. The time records are stored in external EEPROM, that can be programmed using I2C. Paper further discuss design of programming, which can be easily programmed the memory of EEPROM by the PC or smartphone. The goal of this paper is to design and build high quality RC timer with accessories.

Monitoring of the carbon dioxide concentration in the building is carried out for several reasons. One is to ensure hygiene conditions. With the advent of Bluetooth 5.0 came the support of mesh network technology, which is defined by the Bluetooth Mesh standard. By implementing this standard, we can create an extensive network of devices monitoring the concentration of carbon dioxide in the building. Based on the monitored concentration, we can control the air conditioning and ventilation of the spaces, ensuring that the hygiene conditions are met. Thanks to the compatibility of Bluetooth Mesh with Bluetooth Low Energy, it is possible to access individual nodes, e.g. from a mobile phone. The aim of this work is to design and implement a measuring system whose elements will communicate with each other using Bluetooth Mesh wireless technology.

This master’s thesis deals with a modification of existing project which is used as a helpful tool for tracking and measuring digital audio interface I2S. The original design was created by Ing. Martin Stejskal, Polymorphic USB – I2S Interface. Modifications are based on practical one year experience when the device was tested and deals with new requirements for extension. This work describes and justify individual changes of hardware and software part of project.

The goal of this thesis is create measuring station of resolver with using Analog Devices AD2S1210. The measuring station is based on the Atmel ATmega16 microprocesor and programmed in the C language. The measuring plant of resolvers to detection fault per one revolution is developed with industrial cooperation. The measuring station is made for a mobile use with onboard Pb accu. Measuring station will be used as a service device or in the manufacturing for setting the right angle of resolver on the engine. For the faults debugging of resolvers cables and other faults with the signal chain between the resolver and AD2S1210 is possible to show the SIN and COS signals on the external scope.

This thesis discusses the design considerations for a machine conditioning sensor utilizing Bluetooth low energy (BLE).

A digital learning-teaching environment is introduced in which undergraduate students are challenged to connect the basic physical concepts of oscillation, buoyancy and data analysis via an authentic experiment. The damped oscillation of a cylindrical body swimming upright in water is measured via the MEMS acceleration sensor of a wireless MCU SensorTag. The data are recorded with the app phyphox on a smartphone or tablet. The theoretical oscillation period and the experimentally determined periods obtained via different data analysis roots are found to agree showing an excellent theory-experiment interplay. The proposed experiment is suited for the physics home lab e.g. under the current pandemic situation or for open university courses as well as for physics lab courses.

The technology in cellular phones, portable computing systems, intelligent- andconnected- devices are evolving in a high pace and in many cases these devices arerequired to operate in a low-power environment. The problem that continues toemerge, is the power consumption in microcontrollers and DSP devices. This issue hasover time become important to solve in order to maximize battery life. To ease thechoice of power efficient microcontrollers, controlled experiments were thereforeperformed with the Cortex-M4, this microcontroller was chosen because of theupgraded hardware, which has led to an appreciable change in both power- and speedefficiency compared to its predecessors.The conclusion presents important points, along with advantages and difficulties toconsider when implementing a DSP application. By comparing different optimizationswith the Floating Point Unit(FPU), Fixed-point and software Floating-point, the resultsshow that there are major differences in power consumption between these threeoptions. Depending on which option and optimization used then the powerconsumption can exceed over 70% more compared to the other options available.

Rapporten beskriver ett examensarbete som har genomförts hos Scania R&D. Målet har varit att testa om det är möjligt att använda JTAG för kontroll av Ball Grid Array på komponenter som sitter på kretskort. Vanliga mätmetoder kan inte användas med mindre än att man separerar komponenten från kretskortet. Det som framkommer är att JTAG kan användas för att kontrollera Ball Grid Array samtidigt som kretskortet finns i ett så kallat temperaturchockskåp (som används för att testa hur utrustning och komponenter reagerar vid snabba temperaturändringar). Svårigheten består att den flatkabel som för över signaler mellan dator och kretskort är så lång att arrangemanget blir störningskänsligt. Detta kan lösas med en Extender som förstärker signalen så att kabeln kan vara längre än 0,5 meter. Resultat visar att JTAG kan användas med kretskort som befinner sig i temperaturchockskåpet. Målet har även varit att utveckla en kontrollmetod för att kontrollera att det kretskort som levereras till Scania uppfyller kraven i ISO 26262. För att kunna kontrollera om en leverantör uppfyller ISO 26262 behövs dokumentation som verifierar att produkten utvecklats i enlighet med ISO 26262. I ISO standarden finns det tolv delar som beskriver kraven på produkten. I rapporten har fokus lagts på delen som handlar om hårdvara. Ingen kontrollmetod har kunnat utvecklats då ISO standarden var mer omfattade än väntat.
