Basic knowledge on digital electronics.

Educational Goals

Learning the basic knowledge on microprocessors, software development tools and related measurement instrumentation.
Developing intellectual skill to program a microprocessor through the realization of a simple project in laboratory.

Content

Teaching involves the acquisition of a series of knowledge specified in the program, the learning of programming skills through the realization of a simple project in the laboratory. The project will be implemented through both presentation and discussion in the classroom and programming of a microprocessor in the laboratory.

Extended Syllabus

The microprocessor system and its interfaces

The bus structure, bus data, address and control bus synchronous and asynchronous operations and arbitrage. Examples of microprocessors: the 68HC08 and nods to both the Pentium II at picoJava. Examples of Bus: PCI, USB Interface Input Output (I / O): programmed I / O, Interrupts, DMA, Modules I / O

Central Processing Unit (CPU)

Registers, Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), Elements of Microprogramming. the data path and timing; stages of instruction: fetch and decode. Example JVM (Java Virtual Machine Integer) Bus: data, address, control.

Programming a microprocessor

References to assembly language: the execution time. Example: 68HC08 assembler language. Compilers, assemblers and linkers. Traps. Example: Compilers, assemblers and linkers for the 68HC08. Work at Java and the Java virtual machine (JVM) for applications with microprocessors.

Communication Systems and Interfaces

The I / O: organization of the I / O device I / O, core functionality, programming chip I / O devices to a main system microprocessor. Interfaces for communication: examples of management of the fieldbus CAN and / or Internet nodes.

Digital instrumentation

Software development tools for microprocessors: Simulation and Emulation. Logic analyzer. Tools (software or hardware) to measure performance.

Laboratory of digital instrumentation.

Design and development in the laboratory of a simple microprocessor system

Methods of Provision

Conventional

Teaching Methods

Teaching is delivered by a combination of lectures, tutorials and practical laboratory work. Tutorials are teaching sessions between an academic tutor and small groups of students where there is an opportunity to discuss work in detail. All teaching is delivered by expert teaching staff, at the cutting edge of their field.
Analysis and problem solving skills are assisted through monitoring of assignments and project work within individual units

Assessment Methods

The examination consists of two steps:
a) an oral exam to test the knowledge gained on the program as a whole;
b) assessment of the practical activity performed during the development of the project to ascertain the skills achieved.

The second phase of assessment involves:
1) an oral presentation in group, to be held during the class, aimed to the presentation of the project, its implementation procedures and tools used;
2) a written report on the activity of single laboratory that highlights individual contributions.
