Embedded Systems

Embedded Systems is a special purpose computer system/board, which positions all the devices such as processor, memory, interface and control in single package to perform only a specific application activity.

Common examples of embedded systems are- cell phones, automated teller machines, home security systems.

Course Outline

Module 1 - Logic Synthesis

    Digital Design review: Number Systems, Boolean algebra, K-map row, four variables, logic gates, combinational logic, combinational logic with MSI and LSI.

    Sequential Logic – flip-flops, triggering of flip-flops, Registers –shift registers, counters- ripple counter, synchronous counter, memory –RAM, ROM, etc. Introduction, basic terminology, entity declaration architecture body, configuration declaration, package declaration, package body, model analysis, identifiers, data objects, data types, operators.

    Behavioural Modelling – entity declaration, architecture body, process statement, variables, signal assignment, statements – wait, if, case, null, loop next, assertion, report, multiple process. Data modelling – concurrent signal assignment, Delta delay, multiple drivers, block statements, structural Modelling- component declaration, and component instantiation.

Module 4

  • Assembly programming 8051
  • C Programming 8051
  • RTX51 Programming
  • 8051 Interfacing Experiments
  • VHDL Experiments
  • live projects
  • Assignments
    Students will be given assignments after completion of each topic. Assignment helps one to think professionally, to gather data and to draw conclusions from the data gathered. Students are advised to be regular in the class and complete their assignments on time.
  • team projects
    For each individual course, students would be provided with sample projects. After reviewing the performance on the given projects, the best selected candidates will get a chance to work on live projects.
  • class participation
    'Participation' is the most important element to grow and learn more. Students should keep their minds active in each lecture to get the best of knowledge and if they come up with any queries, they can send a mail for the same. Keep clearing your doubts as and when it comes!
