Description

Embedded systems are designed to operate in and interact with the physical world, often with a real-time operating constraint. Typical application areas for these systems include • consumer electronics • aerospace engineering • automotive engineering • medical equipment.

This course is designed for graduates with a background in electronics, communications or computer engineering. It gives you the skills to develop applications in the growing area of embedded systems. You develop knowledge about the underpinning technologies, allowing you to select the most appropriate implementation technologies for an application.

There is a current trend for complex electronic systems to be designed wit…

Embedded systems are designed to operate in and interact with the physical world, often with a real-time operating constraint. Typical application areas for these systems include • consumer electronics • aerospace engineering • automotive engineering • medical equipment.

This course is designed for graduates with a background in electronics, communications or computer engineering. It gives you the skills to develop applications in the growing area of embedded systems. You develop knowledge about the underpinning technologies, allowing you to select the most appropriate implementation technologies for an application.

There is a current trend for complex electronic systems to be designed with tools that do not pre-suppose a particular implementation technology. Typically such systems involve working with mixed-signal technologies and include some digital signal processing, often to realise some communication-related system.

You learn to design systems using conventional programming languages and graphic design tools that will then be able to synthesise designs using a range of technological solutions. Software defined systems may use gate arrays and system-on-chip devices, each of which might integrate a conventional processor core.

Embedded systems often function within larger systems and may involve mobile devices, so you also learn about networking these systems.

As well as gaining practical knowledge and experience on taught modules, you also further develop your skills by completing a major project.
