Embedded Systems

The Embedded Systems course at the University of Texas at Austin is a hands-on class focused on building real-world solutions using embedded systems, requiring students to purchase a TM4C123 microcontroller kit. The course follows a bottom-up approach, covering topics from basic interfacing to complex concepts like graphics and communication. Students will develop practical skills in circuit building and programming in C, culminating in the ability to create an arcade-style game.

The kit ordering details have been worked out, students


should purchase their kits as soon as possible. We
recommend buying the TM4C123 Tiva LaunchPad from
Texas Instruments and the kit parts from the element14
Worldwide Landing Page or the Digi-Key Landing Page.
Mouser is also a good alternate source for parts. In addition,
there are region specific suppliers from which you can get
the extra electronic kit parts. We reccomend taking a look at
the Worldwide Distributor Page and then if it proves too
expensive check your local regional suppliers. For Questions
please see the FAQ page and follow us on Twitter Facebook
and Google Plus for the most up to date information.

The software download however is not ready yet. A class


email will be sent to notify students when you can begin
software downloading.

Course Description

This is a hand-on, learn-by-doing course that shows you how to build solutions to real-world problems using embedded systems. Each student w
purchase a Texas Instruments TM4C123 microcontroller kit and a few electronic components. This microcontroller has a state of the art ARM Cortex
processor. The course uses a bottom-up approach to problem-solving building gradually from simple interfacing of switches and LEDs to compl
concepts like display drivers, digital to analog conversion, generation of sound, analog to digital conversion, graphics, interrupts, and communicat
We will present both general principles and practical tips for building circuits and programming the microcontroller in the C programming langua
You will develop debugging skills using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers and software instrumentation. Laboratory assignments are first performed
simulation, and then you will build and debug your system on the real microcontroller. At the conclusion of this course you will be able to build yo
own arcade-style game.
