Embedded Systems Design

Catalog description

(EECE 4360) This course presents the design of embedded systems that integrate microprocessors into digital systems. The course will teach students the integration of hardware and software into a complete system. The course will also teach the use and integration of FPGAs using both compiler-driven digital design and HDL design tools. Topics will include hardware interfacing, communication and bus protocols, peripheral systems, embedded and real-time operating systems, real-time constraints, networking, memory system performance, system integration, and testing.
