The Embedded Systems course provides a comprehensive introduction to the design and development of systems where hardware and software are tightly integrated. Students learn about microcontrollers, real-time operating systems, and the specific constraints and requirements of embedded devices. The course covers both the theoretical concepts and practical aspects, including programming languages like C and assembly. Hands-on labs are a crucial part of the curriculum, allowing students to work on real-world projects.
In addition to technical skills, the course emphasizes the importance of understanding the hardware-software interface, system-level design, and power management in embedded systems. Students explore the various applications of embedded systems in industries such as automotive, consumer electronics, and healthcare. By the end of the course, students gain the ability to design, implement, and test embedded systems, preparing them for careers in this dynamic and evolving field.
