Abstract

Test and measurement instruments such as oscilloscopes and multimeters are the traditional hardware tools, an electronics engineer would have on his bench. Students in engineering curriculum, when exposed to these instruments, often come across a multitude of equipment’s such as voltmeters, ammeters, oscilloscopes and even simple things like calculator. Even after the touchscreen based smartphone revolution, most of the engineering colleges in India continue the tradition of introducing the students to a decade old instruments. The main objective is to design and develop a portable device called Super-Scope which is ALL-IN-ONE electronics lab equipment that has multiple functionalities needed by a modern day engineering student for his practical experiments in electronics and computer labs that would replace the existing plethora of instruments. The device is a fully operated from touchscreen using menus and touch buttons. The device has a USB-UART bridge circuit that gives USB connectivity for Desktop/Laptop communication for data logging the measured quantities such as current, voltage, speed, voice frequency, frequency, intensity of light and temperature. This process can be fully controlled by the user from the device UI. It also helps to easily upgrade the firmware of the device from a desktop/Laptop. The device is controlled by LPC1313, a powerful 32-bit ARM Cortex-M3 microcontroller from NxP Semiconductors.
