Course content
Introduction to modern methods, techniques and tools used in computer design. Lectures and tutorials will be given on the tools and facilities available in the computer design laboratories and their use in specification, design, verification and prototyping of circuits, printed circuit boards (PCB) and systems. A realistic design project will be carried where participants will work together as a design team. The design project involves the full process from specification, PCB design, Microprocessor and FPGA programming, testing, verification and documentation.
Learning outcome
Knowledge: - The student learns the design process of an embedded system. This includes developing low-level software, hardware and a printed circuit board as well as necessary documentation and project management. Skills: - The student learns to work in a group with a vaguely defined problem statement - The student learns development, debugging and bug correction for reconfigurable logic, microcontrollers and printed circuit boards - The student learns debugging and bug correction at a system level (integration). General competence: - The student learns to work in a project. This includes making decisions based on limited information, tolerating these decisions when they turn out to be suboptimal and evaluating them when better information becomes available.
Learning methods and activities
The project work will be carried out in groups of a size suited for the assignment and focused around the computer design laboratories. The groups are relatively large, with 5-15 students.
Compulsory assignments
- Compulsory assessments
Further on evaluation
Retake of the course will require new participation/deliverables in the portfolio.
The final grade will be based on the finished product (circuit board and source code), a report and a final presentation.
In addition, there are compulsory deliveries without grading during the semester. These will be announced at the beginning of the semester.
