ECE 208 MICROCONTROLLER AND APPLICATIONS

T L 3 0 P 2 C 4

Version 1.1 Aim and Objectives

To give detailed concepts of the hardware features of Intel 8051 (MCS 51 Family) and introduction to 32 bit microcontroller based on ARM core. To provide essential knowledge on various operating modes of I/O ports Timers/Counters, UART, associated control registers and the various types of interrupts, various interfacing techniques.

Learning Outcomes
Ability to choose and apply 8 bit and 32 bit controller for an embedded solution. Ability to interface microcontrollers through external circuit interface to a variety of sensors and actuators. Once a learner goes through this course he will be equipped to migrate to any processor or controller in the industry with minimum transition time.
