Subject aims expressed by acquired skills and competences

The aim of the subject is to acquaint students with microcontrollers, its peripherals and implementation of this technology in embedded control systems. The content of the most lectures and exercises is about the microcontroller itself and its peripherals in detail. The students are able to choose suitable technical equipment for the given task and they can program the microcontroller and configure its peripherals, which will allow to implement the specified control algorithms.

Summary

The subject deals with application of microcontrollers in applications of embedded control systems. The subject describes the architecture of the selected microcontroller and also describes the peripherals that the microcontroller contains. These are in particular the technology of digital and analogue connection with the surroundings, timing concepts, communication and other advanced peripherals. The scope of the exercises is then mastery of technical resources and programming microcontrollers based on ARM Cortex M.
