Learning Outcomes
After the course the student knows the common blocks and of a micro controller and explain their operation. He is able to explain the structure of the IO-interfaces and how to conect external devices such as AD- and DA-converters, displays, push buttons and different sensors. The student knows the common communication protocols. The student knows how to write code for a micro controller with C and assembly. After passing the project assignment, the student is able to build and program a small embedded system based on a micro controller.
