Embedded System
Why Embedded System ?
Necessity is the mother of invention and embedded systems are inventions that were fuelled by the idea of making pre-programs to perform a dedicated function, as part of large systems.
Embedded systems are involved in almost every face of modern life. All modern luxury equipments like Digital Cameras, Mobile Phones, GPS Devices, Cars, Bikes, Televisions, DVD Players, Video Games, Pagers, PDAs, Answering Machines, Microwave Ovens, Network Routers, Fax Machines, Music Synthesizers, Planes, Spacecraft, and Boats are some of the examples of Embedded Systems.
Latest model cars may contain as many as 300 embedded microprocessors, controlling tasks such as antilock braking, climate control, engine control, audio system control, airbag deployment etc.
Even PCs, which are designed around powerful CPUs such as the Intel Pentium 4, contain embedded systems. Floppy and hard disk drives, CD-RW and DVD-ROM drives, and external peripherals such as printers, scanners, and other SCSI, USB, or IEEE 1394 devices all contain embedded processors.
In a particular year, microprocessor manufacturers sold on the order of 100 million processors to use it in computer CPUs. In comparison, during the same time frame, microprocessor manufacturers sold more than 3 billion embedded processors, primarily consisting of 32-bit, 16- bit, 8-bit, and 4-bit devices.
The tremendous number of applications for embedded computing has given rise to high demand for engineers with experience in designing and implementing embedded systems.
Objective of the course
Now the skills and full-fledged knowledge in embedded system are highly sought in the recruitment perspective and will continue to grow in the years to come.Embedded system are normally built around Micro controllers,Digital Signal processors(DSPs)and FPGAs or SOCs.To meet the demand for highly trained and component professionals in this field,we equip our students with technologies like 8051(ATMEL),PIC(Microchip),ARM(TI), At mega(ATMEL),MSP(TI)to make them proficient in embedded system design.
On completion of this course,the students shall be :-
