Course Description

This course provides a basic understanding of embedded computer systems: Hardware/software systems and co design. C programming for embedded microcontroller and peripheral devices. Principles and practice of using Embedded RTOS (Real Time Operating System) and peripheral devices such as sensors and actuators to build a small embedded system. Peripheral interfacing methods and standards. Analog digital conversion methods and interfacing. Low power design. Design methodologies and tools. Design projects. Students will gain design experience with project/case studies using contemporary high-level methods and tools.
