Make & learn Electronics & Arduino: Pressure Sensor Edition

Are you a student or electronics enthusiast who wants to create useful electronics devices which have real world applications? Do you also wish to increase your knowledge of electronics theory and learn more concepts which will aid you in producing your own electronic devices? Are you also interested in learning how to programme an Arduino micro-controller to create even more useful and advance devices? This course will cover all of these topics and much, much more!

By the end of this course you will be able to make your very own pressure sensor, which you can use to measure air pressure. This is a practical course and will enable you to learn through building your own pressure sensor. It will cover each component of the sensor in detail at the same time the theory you need to understand to gain a good level of understanding of electronics will be expanded upon. Concepts such as how Wheatstone bridges work, Instrumentation amplifiers, Clipping, programming the Arduino, using the Liquid Crystal library and analog to digital conversion.

Equations are commonly used to describe relationships between electronic parameters such as resistance, current and voltage.Throughout the course explanations of the theory of electronics will be cemented through Mathematics. The course will cover how these equations are derived and the uses of the equations in the creation of your circuits. Furthermore, the course covers programming the Arduino micro-controller and gives you useful coding tools which you can use in your own projects.
