Course Learning Outcomes:
- Describe the organization and behavior of hardware for supporting interrupts, and write appropriate code sequences in assembly language to initialize hardware for and respond to interrupt requests.
- Describe concepts and design issues related to embedded systems and system-on-chip implementation involving microcontrollers and field-programmable logic chips, highlighting similarities and differences.
- Design the address space and the address decoding logic for specified memory and input/output components in an embedded system, and analyze the memory-interface timing for execution of load/store instructions.
- Write a program in the C language for a specified embedded application involving the use of parallel input/output ports and a hardware timer with interrupt capability.
