Outcome
Design and construct a variety of circuits to interface between a programmable control board and a robotic or automated device.
Indicators
| (a) | List some advantages and disadvantages of using integrated circuits rather than conventional circuits in robotic and automated devices. |
| (b) | Differentiate between NPN and PNP transistors. |
| (c) | Design and construct a circuit that uses a transistor circuit (e.g., 5-5-5 timer) to control a higher current device. |
| (d) | Design and construct a motor control circuit (e.g., H-Bridge) using an integrated circuit (IC) or transistor. |
| (e) | Design and construct a complex circuit that is composed of multiple simple circuits and that contains inputs and outputs. |
| (f) | Design and construct a servo control circuit using an integrated circuit (IC). |
| (g) | Design and construct a circuit, such as a 3D cube, that will allow for the control of multiple light-emitting diodes (LEDs). |

SaskCode Arduino Kit
SaskCode has assembled classroom kits of hands-on materials, such as robot car kits, Arduino starter kits and sensors, that are designed to support the teaching of robotics skills at Grades 7-12 using the Arduino computing platform. Free activities to use with the kit are available for download through Google Drive. Kits are available for sale to any school in the province, and lending kits are available for borrowing, free of charge, by teachers in schools from school divisions that are part of the Saskatoon Industry Education Council (SIEC) partnership (see the SIEC website for a list of school divisions by area). To be eligible to borrow a kit, however, a teacher must complete a professional development session linked to that kit. For more information, please visit the SIEC website - https://www.saskatooniec.ca/
