Overview

This experiment will review the concept of sampling, and will show how to acquire data in real-time, at multiple sampling rates, using Simulink. You will use an Arduino to collect data from a DC motor.

Click on the Handout PDF link in the right sidebar to download the Experiment Handout. It describes all of the steps you will need to perform to complete the experiment. If you click on the Hardware/Parts link in the right sidebar, you will find a list of all parts needed to perform this experiment and places to order them. The 3-D Printer Files link provides files you can use to print the parts needed for the experiment.

What You Will Learn

After successful completion of this experiment, you will be able to use Simulink to program an Arduino to collect data from a DC motor. You will also learn how to set the sampling rate.

Prerequisites

Before running this experiment, you should perform the following experiments: Simple DC Motor.
