MICROPROCESSORS II

Catalog description

Three credit -hours. Three hours of lecture per week. Advanced topics in microprocessor systems design. System timing, memory architecture, interrupts, interfacing peripherals, design for testability, system buses, embedded and real-time systems, hardware and software aspects of interfacing, hardware-software tradeoffs, high level languages, in-circuit emulators, disassembling logic analyzers, and simulators. Students will work in groups to tackle challenging problems requiring microprocessor -based systems by proposing innovative solutions that make use of modern technologies.
