Course Description

This course introduces students to advanced embedded systems design techniques and their applications. Students learn and experiment with building their own microcontroller printed circuit board and interface it to external hardware such as different sensors and actuators. They then move to discuss networking aspects of embedded systems at the low-level using USART, SPI, and I2C, and the high-level using HTTP over WiFi. They experiment with RTOS for microcontroller. Finally, students study Linux for embedded system design and use its powerful feature set to build advanced embedded Linux applications.
