Course outline and objectives:
Embedded computer systems are electronic systems that include a microcomputer to perform a specific dedicated application. Every week millions of tiny computer chips are pouring out of various vendors, which find their way into our everyday products. We can see the application of embedded systems in many areas. Aircrafts, Air-Conditioning Systems, Alarm Systems, Automatic Vending and Teller Machines, House Hold Machines, Traffic Control Systems, Automobiles, Biomedical Equipment, Telecommunication Equipments, Lifts, Answering Machines, Computer Peripherals etc are few of them. Embedded microprocessors or microcontrollers are the brain behind these systems. The application of these controllers makes the equipments user friendly, cheap, and enables to add features impossible by other means.
The objective of this course is to introduce the participants to the design and implementation of an embedded system. The course will make a participant proficient in system design in an embedded environment. The course covers microcontrollers as the most wide - spread example of embedded systems. In particular, the course covers the 89X51 family of microcontrollers, their programming in C language and interfacing techniques. Special emphasis will be given to provide hands on experience for the participant using a specific hardware and interfacing trainer module. This will provide participant an opportunity to learn the fundamentals of designing the hardware and software for systems based on embedded microcontrollers. They will also learn to generate code from a flowchart or from suitable word descriptions of a programming problem. Additionally, the participant will learn the operation of the micro controllers I/O functions and the external devices driven by the microcontroller. Hardware and software design issues are discussed for specific systems implemented using 89C51 as the embedded microcontroller. The laboratory component in this course is about 65%. All exercises will have programming in 'C' language. The participant will be required to solve about 50 -60 problems on the target board.
