| A principles-based foundation to
the analysis and design of systems using microprocessors. The student
will acquire a detailed understanding of the architecture and
instruction set of a representative microcontroller, assembly-language
programming of that microcontroller, and the use of interrupts. The
student will design and build circuits with both digital and analog
components and will learn to use timers, asynchronous serial
communications, parallel communications, analog-to-digital and
digital-to-analog converters, and pulse-width modulators. The
derivation and use of design equations to achieve desired behavior is
emphasized. Prerequisite: EE242 or EE313 or EE332 or EE334. |
