Learning Outcomes

After the course, the student knows the development procedures of embedded systems, and she is able to develop a small-scale device with software. She understands the project-kind nature of the development of embedded systems, and she realizes the importance of real-time operations in embedded systems.

Student's Workload

135 h, which contains 70 h of scheduled contact studies.

Prerequisites / Recommended Optional Courses

Digital Systems Design.

Contents

During the course, the student becomes familiar with the development process of a micro-controller-based device. She will also learn how to develop the electronic and the software interface for peripheral devices. Exercises will give practical guidance to different programming structures and programming environments, and to the use of them for developing a prototype of an embedded system. Micro-controller-dependent programming is done with the C language.
