FIRST Robotic Competition - Training Curriculum
The following training material is available for students
with limited knowlege of computers and electronics.
Curriculum
-
Electrical
Good electrical connections. Wire guage and color code.
Need to develop lessons.
-
Computer Basics
How does a computer work?
-
Electronics
Active circuitry. Analog and Digital fundamentals.
-
Electronic Components
-
Logic
-
Verilog
Modern computers are not designed with schematics.
Instead they are specified in a Hardware Description Language
such as Verilog.
We use Verilog to design the logic that will be installed
into the FPGA on the Robotic Controller.
-
Software
As of 2009 the development environment is completely
different, and now supports C++.
The C lessons here need to be rewritten into C++.
