Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1 Prepare to work on microcontroller hardware.
  • 1.1 OHS procedures for a given work area are obtained and understood.
  • 1.2 OHS risk control work preparation measures and procedures are followed.
  • 1.3 The nature of microcontroller hardware problems is obtained from documentation or from work supervisor to establish the scope of work to be undertaken.
  • 1.4 Advice is sought from the work supervisor to ensure the work is co-ordinated effectively with others.
  • 1.5 Sources of materials that may be required for the work are established in accordance with established procedures.
  • 1.6 Tools, equipment and testing devices needed to carry out the work are obtained and checked for correct operation and safety.
2 Solve microcontroller hardware and firmware problems.
  • 2.1 OHS risk control work measures and procedures are followed.
  • 2.2 The need to test or measure live is determined in strict accordance with OHS requirements and when necessary conducted within established safety procedures.
  • 2.3 Circuits are checked as being isolated where necessary in strict accordance OHS requirements and procedures.
  • 2.4 Established methods are used to solve problems from measured and calculated values as they apply to microcontroller hardware.
  • 2.5 Unexpected situations are dealt with safely and with the approval of an authorised person.
  • 2.6 Problems are solved without unnecessary damage to apparatus, circuits, the surrounding environment or services and using sustainable energy practices.
3 Complete work and document problem solving activities.
