About

You will be able to

  • Define embedded systems, their characteristics and classification
  • Compare Harvard and von Neumann, RISC and CISC architectures
  • Program the 8051 in assembly and embedded C for ports, timers, serial port and interrupts
  • Explain ARM features, registers, operating modes and the Cortex-M family
  • Interface sensors, displays and motors using UART, I2C and SPI
  • Explain RTOS concepts and build simple real-time / IoT applications

Who it is for

  • Diploma Electronics Engineering students of Semester 5 (BTEUP)
  • Polytechnic students of other boards studying the same subject who want unit-wise coaching

What you need

  • Digital Electronics and C programming of earlier semesters

Questions

Which syllabus does the Microcontroller and Embedded Systems course follow?

It follows the BTEUP (Board of Technical Education, Uttar Pradesh) diploma syllabus for Microcontroller and Embedded Systems (Electronics Engineering, Semester 5). If your own board's or institute's syllabus differs, the centre follows your own syllabus.

Will this help in the semester examination?

Yes. Teaching is unit-wise as per the BTEUP scheme, with previous-year question practice, MCQ tests and doubt sessions before the semester exam.

Which boards are used?

8051 trainer kits / Keil simulator, and Arduino or STM32 boards for ARM and interfacing practice.
