Questions
Which syllabus does the Embedded System Design course follow?
It follows the current AKTU B.Tech (ECE) scheme, Semester 7. If your university or college uses a different scheme, the centre follows your own university syllabus.
Do you cover numericals and previous year questions?
Yes. Each unit is taught with solved numericals and AKTU previous-year questions.
Do you include programming examples?
Yes, 8051 / ARM C examples for timers, ADC and serial communication are explained.
