Content
This unit provides deep and practical understanding of advanced embedded systems in the context of technology development. It builds on the learning and experiences of SIT210 Embedded Systems Development. Students will take their learning beyond simple embedded boards and sensor devices, to understanding, working with and designing full System on Chip (SoC) platforms. Students will learn and experience prototyping hardware solutions using the Verilog and VHDL hardware description languages, and field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) hardware platforms. With these platforms, students will work towards developing modern embedded system prototypes that satisfy the requirements of challenging embedded applications.
Hurdle requirement
To be eligible to obtain a pass in this unit, students must meet certain milestones as part of the portfolio.
