Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

E611 Electrical Engineering, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2005 , semester 6, mandatory course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 60 hours (equivalent to 2 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 15 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Horst Wieker
Lecturer:
Prof. Dr. Horst Wieker

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will have detailed knowledge about the use of microprocessors in telecommunications.
Students will learn the theoretical relationships between the design of the hardware and the software that runs on it. To illustrate the principles involved, students will learn about the design of an access unit of the type typically found in embedded systems. Another key objective of this course is to provide students with a detailed understanding of different (telecommunication and microprocessor) clock systems.
