Course Overview
This course provides solid grounding in embedded system design — from hardware fundamentals to microcontroller firmware, real-time systems, and IoT edge deployment. You'll build real applications using STM32, ESP32, and Arduino platforms, interface sensors and actuators, and implement communication protocols and real-time control architectures.
Learning Objectives
- Understand microcontroller architecture and embedded hardware concepts
- Develop firmware in C/C++ for real-time embedded systems
- Interface sensors, actuators, motors, and communication modules
- Use UART, SPI, I²C, CAN, MQTT, Modbus
- Deploy IoT and edge computing solutions (ESP32, Raspberry Pi, STM32)
- Design safe, scalable and low-power embedded systems
