Embedded Systems & IoT

5 Months Beginner to Expert 4.8/5 Average Rating

Build real-time embedded systems using ARM Cortex-M architecture, RTOS multitasking, and customized Linux device drivers for next-generation consumer electronics.

Course Overview

Build real-time embedded systems using ARM Cortex-M architecture, RTOS multitasking, and customized Linux device drivers for next-generation consumer electronics.

This program is designed to bridge the gap between academic education and industry requirements. The curriculum starts from basics and scales up to industry grade designs.

Learning Outcomes

Write hardware-level drivers in Embedded C for UART, SPI, and I2C.
Program ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers using CMSIS and registers.
Develop concurrent firmware using FreeRTOS tasks, semaphores, and queues.
Build custom Linux device drivers and cross-compile kernel modules.
