Physical

Characteristics

Dimensions: 1575mm wide, 2230mm deep, 160mm high without case

Weight: 1.41lb including case


Applications Board

The applications board has been designed to aid the teaching of

microprocessor interfacing from simple switch and lamp

input/output through to more complex closed-loop and open-

loop control systems.
The new board layout enables students to easily understand

each experiment section as it is worked upon. The wide array of

features incorporated into the board include digital switches,

traffic light color LED displays, temperature, light, and optical

position/speed sensors, a heater, a DC motor, an LED bargraph,

and a potentiometer. A screw terminal is also provided for

external analog input.
