Learn the definition and characteristics of embedded systems, including hardware and software integration, microprocessor or microcontroller bases, sensors and actuators, and real-time, task-specific operation in IoT contexts.
Compare general purpose microprocessors with embedded microcontrollers, noting that they lack RAM, ROM, and input and output interfaces, while microcontrollers combine memory and input and output for task-specific embedded systems.
Explore microcontroller properties—RAM, register banks, 16-bit addresses, and bidirectional I/O—and system-on-chip integration, including embedded processors for low-power, cost-effective mobile and automotive applications.
Explore real-time systems with strict time constraints and worst-case time estimates, including real-time embedded systems, and learn scheduling of periodic, aperiodic, and sporadic tasks with preemptive and non-preemptive approaches.
Explore real-time embedded systems, distinguish hard and soft real-time types, and examine applications in missiles, airplanes, vehicle control, telecommunications, medical monitoring, multimedia, building control, and space operations.
Explore IoT addressing techniques, comparing IPv4 limitations with IPv6, including unicast, multicast, and anycast. Learn about IPv6’s huge address space and the IPv6 packet header.
The objective of this course is to understand the fundamentals of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Embedded Systems. In this course, students will learn the definition of the Embedded System, along with it they will learn various characteristics of the Embedded System. Then the concept of Real-time systems, Real-time tasks have been covered in this course. After that, students will learn the basics of processors in which they will understand the difference between the General Processors in Computer and the Embedded Processors. After covering this, students will learn about the basics of Microcontrollers, various properties of Microcontroller, and Components of Microcontrollers. Then an interesting concept of System-On-Chip and its examples will be covered in this course. After the completion of the Microcontrollers, students will be going to learn about the various components of the Embedded Systems. Then students will learn about the embedded processor will be considered an important part of the Internet of Things. This course will be helpful to those who want to learn the Internet of Things from the basics. It will cover the prerequisite required for the very emerging trend in the field of IT i.e., the Internet of Things. After successful completion of this course, students will be able to understand the fundamentals and needs of Embedded Systems for the Internet of Things.
