Course objectives:
- Understand the basic programming of Microprocessor and microcontroller.
- To develop the microcontroller-based programs for various applications.
Experiments
Conduct the following experiments by writing C Program using Keil microvision simulator (any 8051 microcontroller can be chosen as the target).
1 Write a 8051 C program to multiply two 16 bit binary numbers.
2 Write a 8051 C program to find the sum of first 10 integer numbers.
3 Write a 8051 C program to find factorial of a given number.
4 Write a 8051 C program to add an array of 16 bit numbers and store the 32 bit result in internal RAM
5 Write a 8051 C program to find the square of a number (1 to 10) using look-up table.
6 Write a 8051 C program to find the largest/smallest number in an array of 32 numbers
7 Write a 8051 C program to arrange a series of 32 bit numbers in ascending/descending order
8 Write a 8051 C program to count the number of ones and zeros in two consecutive memory locations.
9 Write a 8051 C program to scan a series of 32 bit numbers to find how many are negative.
10 Write a 8051 C program to display “Hello World” message (either in simulation mode or interface an LCD display).
11 Write a 8051 C program to convert the hexadecimal data 0xCFh to decimal and display the digits on ports P0, P1 and P2 (port window in simulator).
Course outcomes (Course Skill Set):
At the end of the course the student will be able to:
1. Write C programs in 8051 for solving simple problems that manipulate input data using different instructions of 8051 C.
2. Develop testing and experimental procedures on 8051 Microcontroller, analyze their operation under different cases.
3. Develop programs for 8051 Microcontroller to implement real world problems.
4. Design and Develop Mini projects
Assessment Details (both CIE and SEE)
- The weightage of Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE) is 50% and for Semester End Exam (SEE) is 50%.
- The minimum passing mark for the CIE is 40% of the maximum marks (20 marks).
- A student shall be deemed to have satisfied the academic requirements and earned the credits allotted to each course.
- The student has to secure not less than 35% (18 Marks out of 50) in the semester-end examination (SEE).
Continuous Internal Evaluation (CIE):
CIE marks for the practical course is 50 Marks.
The split-up of CIE marks for record/ journal and test are in the ratio 60:40.
- Each experiment to be evaluated for conduction with observation sheet and record write-up. Rubrics for the evaluation of the journal/write-up for hardware/software experiments designed by the faculty who is handling the laboratory session and is made known to students at the beginning of the practical session.
- Record should contain all the specified experiments in the syllabus and each experiment write-up will be evaluated for 10 marks.
- Total marks scored by the students are scaled downed to 30 marks (60% of maximum marks).
- Weightage to be given for neatness and submission of record/write-up on time.
- Department shall conduct 02 tests for 100 marks, the first test shall be conducted after the 8th week of the semester and the second test shall be conducted after the 14th week of the semester.
- In each test, test write-up, conduction of experiment, acceptable result, and procedural knowledge will carry a weightage of 60% and the rest 40% for viva-voce.
- The suitable rubrics can be designed to evaluate each student’s performance and learning ability. Rubrics suggested in Annexure-II of Regulation book
- The average of 02 tests is scaled down to 20 marks (40% of the maximum marks).
The Sum of scaled-down marks scored in the report write-up/journal and average marks of two tests is the total CIE marks scored by the student.
Semester End Evaluation (SEE):
SEE marks for the practical course is 50 Marks. SEE shall be conducted jointly by the two examiners of the same institute, examiners are appointed by the University
- All laboratory experiments are to be included for practical examination.
- (Rubrics) Breakup of marks and the instructions printed on the cover page of the answer script to be strictly adhered to by the examiners. OR based on the course requirement evaluation rubrics shall be decided jointly by examiners.
- Students can pick one question (experiment) from the questions lot prepared by the internal /external examiners jointly.
- Evaluation of test write-up/ conduction procedure and result/viva will be conducted jointly by examiners.
- General rubrics suggested for SEE are mentioned here, writeup-20%, Conduction procedure and result in -60%, Viva-voce 20% of maximum marks.
- SEE for practical shall be evaluated for 100 marks and scored marks shall be scaled down to 50 marks (however, based on course type, rubrics shall be decided by the examiners)
- Change of experiment is allowed only once and 15% Marks allotted to the procedure part to be made zero. The duration of SEE is 03 hours Rubrics suggested in Annexure-II of Regulation book
