<p>A national-level workshop, which was based on the different applications of the MSP 430 Microcontroller, was recently organised by the department of electrical and electronic engineering at HKBK College of Engineering. <br /><br /></p>.<p>The workshop, which spanned three days, was inaugurated by the principal of the college, T C Manjunath. Around a hundred faculty members from various engineering colleges across the country attended it. Not only did it give them exposure to new forms of technology, but it also gave them a wealth of knowledge that they could then impart to their students. Research students were also present on the occasion. <br /><br />It began with a presidential address by the principal, who highlighted the importance of this micro-controller, and spoke about the ways in which it could be applied. This was followed by a short speech by Powly Thomas, the head of the department, who explained to the participants why this workshop was relevant. The workshop began with a short presentation by Anil Kumar V Nandhi, a professor at BVB College of Engineering and Technology. He explained the architecture and programming of the microcontroller. <br /><br />The participants were given a chance to get hands-on experience of understanding the features of the microcontroller. <br /><br />It was evident that the workshop was an enlightening experience for many. Ananthi, a professor at East Point College, said, “The workshop was very informative about the new topic of microcontrollers. I’m delighted that I could attend it.” Seethalakshmi B, from MS Engineering College, pointed out that the best part of the experience was the practical nature of the workshop. <br /><br />The workshop concluded with a valedictory function, which was presided over by C M Faiz, the director of the college. Abdul Hameed, the administrator of the college, also gave a short speech in which he emphasised the need to train faculty members as well as students, and asked the participants to make an effort to ensure they were up-to-date with the latest technology in their fields. The participants were all awarded certificates. <br /><br /></p>
