CoreChart Enabling Innovation Skills Development

By eLabtronics

Electronics is a key contributor to the Australian Economy

Electronics is a significant enabler that underpins growth and innovation in virtually all industries.

For example it is estimated that 90% of all future innovation in the automobile industry will be driven by electronics, with electronics representing up to 40% of a vehicle’s production cost by 2010.

According to the Defence Department, the value of electronics in defence related activities is even higher, with electronics representing up to 80% of the production cost of a modern warship and a submarine.

Quote from the Australian Electrical Electronics Manufacturing Association AEEMA

In November 2001, the technical

experts of giant Microchip

Technology Inc flew

from Arizona, USA to meet

with a small company in the

city of Adelaide . . .

They came to see CoreChart:

A New Microchip Programming Tool

Simplifies programming of microchips

-1000s of innovative new

electronics / ICT

applications!

The CoreChart Revolution

Microcontrollers or

microchips are:

•Single-chip computers

•Driving the next phase of ICT

growth

-5-cent size web

servers!

CoreChart is paving the new way

CoreChart reduces time to market

CoreChart makes microchip programming:

•Simpler

•Faster

•Less Prone to Error

-Without compromising

performance!

Originality and Ingenuity

CoreChart is easy to use:

•It is being embedded in School curriculum

•Students are building real life industrial

controllers

- examples: Oyster counters, alarm controllers

-DOS to Windows!

User friendliness

•Automotive

•Telecommunications

•Defence

•Bio-technology

•Smart Toys

-The potential is

unlimited!

A multitude of applications

CoreChart RPM Reviving Science and Mathematics interest

CoreChart RPM program produces good results

High School students feedback:

- I found the program interesting and overall satisfaction : 86%

- I enjoyed learning like this : 89%

- the University students presented the program effectively : 96%

Project Manager Associate Professor Brenton Dansie:

I think the really encouraging sign is that 50% of students agreed that the program has stimulated their interest in a career in electronics engineering! I think that this is a great result.

Striving for Excellence

The South Australian Solar Car Consortium entry “Kelly” won first place in the 2003 World Solar Challenge in the Production Class

“Kelly” is fitted with 29 eLabtronics solar maximisers programmed in CoreChart

A Holistic Approach

A Total Commitment by Stakeholders

Fully Exploit and Expand the CoreChart Robotic

Peer Mentoring program:

•To reverse the catastrophic decline of Science and

Mathematics in Australian Schools

•To create large scale Intellectual Properties IP to counter

the low cost production centres of India and China

•Program is endorsed by EIA and AEEMA
