Module name (EN):
Name of module in study programme. It should be precise and clear.
Programming Microcontrollers
Degree programme:
Study Programme with validity of corresponding study regulations containing this module.
Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2018
Module code: E2509
SAP-Submodule-No.:
The exam administration creates a SAP-Submodule-No for every exam type in every module. The SAP-Submodule-No is equal for the same module in different study programs.

E2509 (P211-0112) Electrical Engineering and Information Technology, Bachelor, ASPO 01.10.2018 , semester 5, mandatory course, technical
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 150 hours (equivalent to 5 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 105 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jürgen Schäfer
Lecturer: Prof. Dr.-Ing. Jürgen Schäfer

Learning outcomes:
Proficiencies: After successfully completing this module, students will be proficient in the following: structure of components of embedded systems, system-on-chip, special features of embedded system programming (cross-compiler, programming, debugging; GPIO, ADC, DAC, SPI, I2C, USART interfaces; interrupts and exceptions) Skills: Furthermore, students will be capable of working with a development tool for embedded systems, working with the documentation of a modern RISC microcontroller and configuring GPIOs, USART interfaces and timers, as well as creating interrupts and debugging embedded systems. Competencies: Students will also be able to program microcontroller-based embedded systems with limited resources under real-time conditions without an operating system. They will be able to implement simple hardware abstraction layers and realize simple controls using state machines. Students will be able to detect possible race conditions.
