Programming Project

• identify and list the basic elements of the architecture of a microcontroller
• describe and explain basic mathematical operations in fixed point format
• apply and demonstrate the use of registers in a microprocessor
• analyse a medium-size programming problem
• apply C language and structured programming in C
• determine requirement specifications for an application targeting a microprocessor
• design, implement and operate an application in real time
• organize, plan and document the workflow of a software project
• write a technical report including references and citations.

An introduction gives an overview of computer architecture, bus, program and data memory, parallel and serial communication. Afterwards, the student is introduced to development tools for high-level programming language coding (at the moment, C language) of a microprocessor system. For the rest of the course, a project is given to the students.
