Course Description


ECE 4760 Digital Systems Design Using Microcontrollers

Spring. 4 credits. Culminating design experience (CDE) course. Prerequisite: ECE 3140/CS 3420. ECE 3150 highly recommended.

Design of real-time digital systems using microprocessor-based embedded controllers. Students working in pairs design, debug, and construct several small systems that illustrate and employ the techniques of digital system design acquired in previous courses. The content focuses on the laboratory work. The lectures are used primarily for the introduction of examples, description of specific modules to be designed, and instruction in the hardware and high-level design tools to be employed.
