Course Overview
Delve into the basics of electrical components in a complex mechatronic system. Describe the basic functions and physical properties of electrical components, and the roles they play within the system. Implement technical documentation such as data sheets, schematics, timing diagrams and system specifications. Describe the complete system, the flow of energy through the system and measurements on the components. Explain preventive maintenance and safety issues for electrical components within the system. Apply troubleshooting strategies to identify, localize and (where possible) to correct malfunctions in a mechatronic system. With the skills gained in this course you will be able to explain the inner workings of the electrical components of a mechatronics system.
