About Us ABET ECE 1160/2160Introduction to Embedded System Design(3 credits) Description: An introduction to the design and implementation of embedded microprocessor systems: topics include all aspects of system design; hardware and software, power/energy, performance constraints, real-time OS concepts, etc. The laboratory introduces a particular embedded system design development system and includes several design exercises to reinforce system design and real-time concepts and concludes with a mini term design project . Prerequisite: ECE/COE 0142 Text: Wayne Wolf, Computers as Components: Principles of Embedded Computing, Morgan and Kaufman, October 2000.

Jonathan Valvano, Embedded Microcomputer Systems: Real Time Interfacing, Brooks/Cole, 2000 Course Objectives: The primary objectiveis to have the students develop the basic ability to analyze and design embedded systems and to function in teams. Topics Covered: Embedded System Overview; Excalibur Overview; NIOS Architecture; Design Process, Formal Specification – UML; I/O Subsystems; Supervisor Mode, Exceptions, and Traps; CPU Performance/Power Consumption; Real-Time OS; Embedded Computing Platform; Program Design and Analysis; Hardware Accelerators; Networks; System Design Techniques Class/Laboratory Schedule: Lecture: two one-hour sessions per week; Laboratory: one three-hour session per week Professional Component Contributions: The course contributes to the one and a half years of engineering science and design requirement. There is a significant design component but the algorithms for optimizing power and performance and other topics also contribute to the engineering science. Prepared by: James T.
