Automation of the most appetizing career direction is mainly in the direction of microcontroller software development, electronic hardware development, embedded systems development and so on.
1, microcontroller direction of software development. For most students, this is a good direction. And electronics-related enterprises, basically will use the microcontroller, there are many employment opportunities. Learning automation specialties, at least before graduation to 51 microcontroller to play very familiar. This involves the C language, so the C language must be learned.
2, electronic hardware development. That is, hardware circuit design. Commonly known as you have seen the green circuit board inside the TV recorder, are designed by professionals in this direction. It is also a very good direction, a lot of work opportunities, and the longer the dry time the more appetizing. Choose this direction, you have to seriously learn digital circuits, analog circuits and so on these courses.
3, embedded systems development. Software direction, this relative to the microcontroller software is more difficult. Mainly used in all electronic devices in addition to the computer on the development of the operating system, the development of objects such as cell phones, PDAs, electromechanical systems, etc. In addition, the automation profession has a design institute, factories, construction sites and other employment direction.
Meaning of automation
1, automation refers to the machine, equipment, system or process (production, management process) in the absence of human or less direct human involvement, in accordance with human requirements, after automatic detection, information processing, analysis and judgment, manipulation and control, to achieve the desired goals of the process. Automation technology is widely used in industry, agriculture, military, scientific research, transportation, commerce, medical care, service and family.
2, the use of automation technology can not only liberate people from heavy physical labor, part of the mental labor and poor, dangerous working environment, but also expand the function of human organs, greatly improve labor productivity, enhance the ability of human beings to understand the world and transform the world. Therefore, automation is the industry, agriculture, national defense and science and technology modernization of the important conditions and significant signs.
3, the application of automation is very wide, the most significant is the field of industrial production. In industrial production, automation technology can make the production process more efficient, accurate and controllable. In the pharmaceutical industry, automation technology can realize the whole process control from raw material extraction to finished product manufacturing, improve the quality of drugs and production efficiency.
